Our client wished to gain an ACPR Payment Institution license in France and asked for Lysis' assistance to prepare all the documents and for general support during the application process.
Lysis worked with the firm's compliance department to adapt the UK governance and compliance framework to be suitable for the ACPR. License acquired, we then worked with our client to implement and embed the new framework as they started operations in France.
Our client was in the middle of an extensive regulatory remediation for the Central Bank of Ireland and the remediation.
Lysis enabled a major US crypto exchange to achieve UK FCA registration through full regulatory transformation, governance design, and compliance support.
Although the client is based in the US, they have European subsidiaries which include the UK and therefore required Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) registration. In order to obtain registration as a crypto asset firm in the U.K. they had to comply with specific FCA requirements.
