ABM guided our payment institution licence application from start to approval. Their knowledge of regulatory expectations saved us months of preparation and uncertainty.

Markus Weber

The team built our entire AML framework and trained our staff. The regulator's review passed without a single major finding. Genuinely impressive work.

Sofia Lindqvist

Practical, responsive, and honest. They told us early which licensing route made sense for our model and delivered exactly what they promised.

Tomas Novak

Our MiCA authorisation felt overwhelming until ABM stepped in. They structured the whole application and handled every regulator question with real confidence.

Elena Rossi

We use ABM for ongoing compliance support across three EU markets. One partner, consistent quality, and always ahead of regulatory changes affecting us.

Pieter van den Berg

Their internal audit found gaps our previous advisers missed completely. The remediation plan was clear, prioritised, and realistic for our team size.

Excellent AML training, tailored to our business rather than generic slides. Our board finally understands its compliance responsibilities properly now. Highly recommended.

Your Questions Answered

Who regulates crypto businesses in Austria?

The Austrian Financial Market Authority (FMA) authorises and supervises Cryptoasset Service Providers under MiCA, applying the FM-GwG, the Transfer of Funds Regulation, and DORA.

Yes. Providing cryptoasset services in Austria requires CASP authorisation covering the relevant service classes; firms registered under the older FM-GwG regime need full MiCA authorisation.

Most Austrian authorisations run several months to a year from submission, plus preparation. Complete, well-evidenced applications with credible governance move through review meaningfully faster.

Yes. Most of our work is ongoing: compliance monitoring, regulatory change management, policy updates, reporting support, independent reviews, and training throughout the supervisory relationship.

Yes, deliberately. ABM Global Compliance never operates regulated businesses or holds client funds. We build, strengthen, and review your compliance arrangements while you remain the regulated operator.
