Expert Compliance Services for CASPs in Italy
CASP authorisation is the entry ticket, and it is demanding. ABM Global Compliance supports cryptoasset service providers in Italy with MiCA authorisation, conduct and prudential compliance, AML frameworks, and Travel Rule implementation, and we shape every engagement around this market, because Milan’s fintech ecosystem is growing fast. We build compliance for exactly that reality.

Licensed Status Changes Everything for CASPs
Compliance in Italy means mastering two layers at once. MiCA authorisation demands governance, prudential safeguards from EUR 50,000 to 150,000, custody arrangements, and conduct rules, with national transition windows closing. Beneath it, Milan’s fintech ecosystem is growing fast, with Banca d’Italia running innovation channels and the OAM registry era giving way to MiCA authorisation.
The cost of misreading this market is concrete. Supervisors are building crypto expertise fast, and early enforcement will define expectations sector-wide, making clean compliance a market differentiator. Operating without authorisation now means leaving the EU market. We build frameworks for Italy from local supervisory reality rather than generic EU templates, because a triple-supervisor structure amid ongoing consolidation shapes what CONSOB examines first.

CASP Compliance Questions Answered
Do existing crypto firms need new authorisation?
Yes. Firms registered under national regimes must obtain MiCA authorisation as transition windows close, and we manage that conversion end to end.
What services require CASP authorisation?
MiCA covers ten service classes including custody, exchange, execution, advice, and portfolio management of cryptoassets, each carrying specific prudential and conduct requirements, including Decree 231/2007 duties.
What capital does a CASP need?
Prudential safeguards range from EUR 50,000 to 150,000 depending on service classes, alongside insurance or comparable guarantees, with governance and systems requirements on top.
Can CASPs passport across the EU?
Yes. MiCA authorisation in one member state passports across all EU markets through notification, replacing the fragmented national regimes crypto previously faced.
What is the Travel Rule for crypto?
Transfer of funds rules require originator and beneficiary information to accompany cryptoasset transfers, demanding technical solutions and counterparty due diligence we help implement.
