Zumo First to Integrate Tech Requirements of FCA’s New Financial Promotion Regime for Crypto Assets Digital asset-as-a-service platform
Zumo has become the first cryptocurrency platform to integrate the financial promotions technical flow design laid out by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA).
In June,
the FCA published rules on financial promotions for cryptoassets, which will have effect from Oct. 8, aiming to reduce and prevent harm to consumers
from investing in crypto assets that do not match their risk appetite.
In compliance with the rules, the UK-based digital assets firm
Zumo announced Thursday that the company has implemented its financial promotions technical flow design, which has been deemed appropriate by the regulator.
The company noted that the early compliance shows Zumo’s “unwavering commitment” toward regulatory alignment
and user protection.
“The rigorous adherence to regulatory frameworks is not just about compliance but is a testament to our commitment to be the trusted and sustainable partner for digital assets, ensuring the safety and the integrity of the digital asset industry,” Nick Jones, CEO of Zumo noted.
Zumo further said that its financial promotions technical flow is available via the company’s B2B API, aimed at assisting unregistered firms to remain compliant with the requirements
set by the FCA.
