The survey found that 4 out of 17 contacted banks are highly crypto-friendly and it is easy for their customers to deal with crypto-related activities. These banks are Starling, Monzo, and Revolut. These banks allow banks, Card & other very kinds of payment support to deposit & receive funds in between the exchange, except at Binance exchange which is fully banned to operate in the United Kingdom.
In the contacted banks Barclays, Lloyds Bank, Bank of Scotland, NatWest, and RBS were found as neutral Banks toward the crypto sector. That means, these banks have no ban, no favor rules for the sector. The services by these banks are not very friendly to the crypto companies but still, their clients can transfer funds between banks to crypto exchanges easily.
Kate Anderson, from Finder.com, said:
“It’s clear from the research that banks are taking the security of their customers seriously, which is vital, although there’s certainly room to improve the communication of their policies. Cryptocurrency isn’t going away, so this patchy communication is something that will need to be remedied sooner rather than later.”
In the present time, the majority of the leading players are trying to bring crypto technology-supported payment systems into daily life but notably, The financial conduct authority (FCA), a leading financial regulatory body of the UK, is not much in favor of the Crypto sector. It is a very tough job for crypto companies to get regulatory approval from FCA to operate in the UK.
