By September 10, 2024No Comments

As the digital asset market grows, so does the complexity of regulatory oversight. Private fund managers are under mounting pressure from the SEC to ensure their digital asset strategies comply with evolving rules and standards. This webinar will explore the critical compliance hurdles and risk management challenges, offering insights into how private funds can stay ahead of regulatory demands.

Join us for an in-depth discussion that covers:

  • Custody Risks: Understanding the Custody Rule and the challenges of using crypto exchanges, digital asset custodians, or private keys, which often do not meet the definition of “qualified custodians”.
  • Portfolio Management: Exploring the complexities of identifying digital assets deemed securities by the SEC and best practices for exchange review and counterparty risk.
  • Marketing Compliance: Avoiding common pitfalls around unsupported claims, especially in the context of being “one of the first in the space”.
  • Cybersecurity Threats: Enhancing security around private keys and establishing a robust incident response plan.
  • Anti-Money Laundering (AML): Addressing risks related to in-kind crypto contributions and meeting compliance standards.
  • Record Retention: Managing electronic communication and maintaining comprehensive trade documentation in line with SEC expectations

Arm your firm with the insights and tools needed to navigate SEC examinations and stay ahead in the rapidly evolving digital asset space.
