Zumo launches UK Cryptoasset Regulation Tracker

  • —FCA authorization gateway opened September 30; applications due by February 28, 2027
  • —The new regime takes effect on October 25, 2027
  • —Trading platforms, custodians, stablecoin issuers and staking arrangers all need FCA authorization
  • —Only 10% of providers consider themselves fully prepared, per a Zumo survey
Why it matters: UK crypto firms must secure FCA authorization by 2027 or face operating limits or wind-down plans, making compliance readiness critical.
