Everything You Need to Know About APAC Digital Asset Regulations

It's becoming increasingly hard to keep up with the pace of the evolving crypto regulatory landscape in APAC. 

In this episode, Ian Andrews is joined by Chengyi Ong (Head of Policy, APAC, Chainalysis) to discuss Hong Kong legalising retail crypto trading, Japan setting a high standard for crypto compliance requirements and Singapore’s approach to digital asset regulation.   

Chengyi also sheds some light on the biggest takeaway from the FATF forum held in Japan and provides insights on how the APAC countries can remain innovative, while complying with regulations and not wanting to take their operations abroad. 

Chengyi highlights success stories in the region regarding consumer protection and market integrity and forecasts the extensive policy work that will go into regulating real world asset tokenization in ASIA and APAC.
