THE FUTURE IS FINTECH: The fintech space boomed during the pandemic, with $1.5 billion in fintech investment across a range of sub-sectors. This month we look at ASIC’s Market License Regime for Blockchain-enabled fintech projects.

​If you’re operating or looking to operate financial market infrastructure (hello Exchanges, CS facilities) you’ll generally need a license. Tier 2 licenses are issued at ASIC’s discretion and are a pared-back set of obligations designed to fit the particular market, which is pretty important if you’re working with tech that automates fundamentals of your venue’s operation.

Want to know how to demonstrate that your facility meets the prescribed minimum requirements, and appropriately articulate its nature, complexity and features? Start here: https://bit.ly/36gVv0bhere & get in touch.

ROAD TO LAUNCH: Are you launching a native token? Bootsrapping liquidity? Creating a marketplace? If you’re involved in the DeFi economy in any way then it's important to know that digital assets interact with Australian financial services laws, yet how they do is not always readily apparent.

​Questioning whether you're creating a financial product that's regulated under law is a very early, very necessary first step on the road to launch, and vital if you're already there. If you need support with the legal characterisation of the rights and features of your product, drop us a line and take a look here first: https://bit.ly/3ugYU7p

OUTSIDE THE FRAMEWORK: Why do so many intellectual, thoughtful people still have a blind spot to crypto? According to author and educator Michael J Casey: “it’s because even though they express interest in reforming our financial system, their minds are trapped in the meta-story of our system of money and power, the one that holds it all together.”
