Compliance Clarified – a podcast by Thomson Reuters Regulatory Intelligence Series 2, Episode 7: Cryptos on the rise

In the seventh episode of the Compliance Clarified podcast Susannah Hammond is joined by Kevin Batteh of the Delta Strategy Group and Todd Ehret to discuss the potential of cryptos to make payments and transfers more efficient. The speed and reach of transactions, however, together with the potential for anonymous activity and for transactions without financial intermediaries, also make crypto-assets vulnerable to misuse and raise the risk of money laundering.
Policymakers, regulators and firms all need to play their part in ensuring that cryptos are as "safe" as possible, not only in terms of investment risk but also with regards to regulatory certainty and cyber resilience.
