Crypto firms fear being shut out of the UK market as operational readiness lags behind ambition
- Initial findings from Zumo’s UK Regulatory Preparedness Assessment survey show seven in ten crypto firms see losing UK market access as a key risk of the incoming regulatory regime – yet just one in ten feel fully prepared for the new rules.
- With the FCA opening its application gateway in September, 60% of firms are still assessing how to adapt their UK operating model to meet the new requirements, while 30% are finding it challenging to determine which rules apply to them and what permissions are needed.
- As nine out of ten firms prepare to submit applications, these early insights from Zumo’s live survey show a gap between ambition and firms’ readiness; collaboration will be required to close this gap, with Zumo calling on firms to feed into its assessment to help make compliance a more structured, manageable process.
