Crypto Compliance in Transition: Building Trust Between Exchanges and Regulators for the Next Wave of Digital Assets

As digital asset markets mature, compliance has become the defining issue for both regulators and industry leaders. Exchanges are evolving beyond spot trading into new categories: tokenised assets, stablecoins, staking, derivatives, and AI-driven products, which bring fresh opportunities but also complex risks around consumer protection, systemic stability and market integrity.

This dialogue convenes Heads of Compliance from leading global exchanges together with senior central bank representatives to co-develop approaches for building a trusted digital asset ecosystem. By combining supervisory perspectives with on-the-ground compliance experience, the dialogue will surface practical strategies for managing risk while enabling innovation. The session will focus on:
- Emerging product categories and market evolution
- Regulatory considerations for the next generation of financial products
- Customer protection and compliance strategies
