Red Swan Partners’ Post

I've recently come across two intriguing papers regarding digital asset surveillance. The first, from Nasdaq, delves into the significance of incorporating transparency and investor protection measures into burgeoning disruptive markets. You can find the report here: https://lnkd.in/gffY64D8 The second paper, from Deloitte, discusses the need for and the potential outcomes of global collaboration among regulatory bodies and industry stakeholders in establishing common standards and best practices for trade surveillance in digital assets. Over the past years, there has been a noticeable acceleration in the evolution of regulatory frameworks globally, with Europe's MiCA representing the most comprehensive regulation thus far. As we discussed repeatedly before, particularly in the context of emerging technologies, we believe that regulators must adopt a proactive stance, striving to not only detect but deter malicious behavior, thus maintaining ahead of evolving threats. As the digital asset space continues to mature, how do you envision regulators staying ahead of evolving threats to market integrity and investor protection? #cryptoregulation #startups #innovation

COMPANIES DEALING WITH HIGHEST RISK LEVELS IN 12 YEARS..... I really like the last two words used...."horizon scanning". It's what we do so well with our partners. It's so valuable to have a partner helping you scan your horizon. _____________________________________________________ “Organizations are having to deal with risks that were never on their radar in the past. An unpredictable economic environment with shorter and more volatile cycles is being fueled by growing geopolitical tensions. In response, we are seeing a proliferation of sanctions and a greater regulatory burden which organizations must now navigate,” said Eva-Maria Barbosa, a partner at Clyde & Co. “Add to this the growing impact of AI and the sheer number of risks could feel overwhelming for any business. With all of this to contend with, effective planning and risk prioritization is becoming crucial, with more and more companies understanding the importance of consistent horizon scanning.”

With technology evolving at a rate faster than regulators can control, companies must self-govern and assess both financial and reputational risks. https://lnkd.in/eUUUnzDz
