Overview

Custody and asset management services require the highest level of regulatory compliance and operational infrastructure in the crypto industry. Whether you are building a custodial platform, launching a crypto fund, or tokenizing real-world assets, the regulatory and legal framework must be institutional-grade from day one.

Our custody practice covers the full spectrum: custody license applications (Hong Kong, Singapore, Switzerland, EU), key management governance frameworks, insurance procurement, and operational policy development. We work with clients to establish the controls, segregation, and reporting frameworks that regulators and institutional clients expect.

Crypto fund formation is a core competency. We structure hedge funds, venture funds, and tokenized funds across jurisdictions including Cayman Islands, BVI, Singapore, and Luxembourg. Each structure is optimized for the specific investor base, investment strategy, and regulatory requirements. We prepare offering memorandums, subscription agreements, and investor qualification procedures to institutional standards.

RWA (Real World Asset) tokenization is an emerging area with complex regulatory requirements. We provide the legal framework for tokenizing real estate, debt instruments, equity, and other traditional assets, including securities law analysis, custody arrangements, and investor distribution frameworks that comply with securities regulations across target jurisdictions.

Why this matters

Custody failures have resulted in some of the largest losses in crypto history. Institutional investors now conduct extensive due diligence on custody arrangements before committing capital. The regulatory environment for custody is tightening globally, with new requirements from the EU (MiCA), Hong Kong (HKMA), and other jurisdictions.

Fund structures that are not properly designed from the start face expensive restructuring when they grow. Investor expectations for governance, reporting, and compliance are based on traditional finance standards. Meeting these expectations requires institutional-grade legal infrastructure from launch.
