The financial conduct authority is planning to set up a separate team to regulate and control the activities of the crypto industry in the UK.
The UK is a blockchain-friendly nation in the world but its stance on crypto seems not friendly. Existing crypto frameworks in the UK are highly strict and also not easy for the majority of the crypto companies to fulfill the minimum requirements to get regulatory approval to start crypto operations.
According to a recent job post detail on LinkedIn, The Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), the U.K.’s financial member want to hire someone, who can head the digital assets department and also set up a new team.
Under the details of the requirements, the Digital assets department head will be required to have the talent to manage the work of FCA’s regulatory operations against the crypto companies, which are involved in illegal activities or any kind of fraud attempt.
