UK FCA sets crypto company to comply with marketing rules

The Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), the British financial supervisory authority, has recently published an important warning to all crypto companies in the United Kingdom. In a letter dated July 4, the FCA emphasizes the need to comply with the marketing regulations to protect British customers.

The FCA gives the crypto company time until October 8 to ensure that they meet the regulations for financial advertising. Companies that do not do this have to expect consequences.

To comply with the regulations, the FCA offers the crypto company four options for the lawful communication of crypto-asset promotions. On the one hand, an authorized party can approve the advertising campaign. Alternatively, a company registered with the FCA can start the hype. An advertising campaign can also be considered excluded if it corresponds to the provisions of the Financial Services and Markets Act.

The FCA emphasizes in its letter that it will be hard against illegal advertising for cryptocurrencies. The measures include setting companies on a warning list, removal or blocking of illegal financial advertising on websites or social media accounts as well as possible enforcement measures.

These strict measures are part of the United Kingdom's efforts to regulate the crypto industry. After a few top -class bankruptcies last year, the government passed a law to regulate cryptocurrencies and stable coins. The Financial Services and Markets Bill gives the regulatory authorities the authority to create a tailor -made framework for the sector of the digital currencies and to support the safe introduction of cryptocurrencies.

The deadline set by the FCA serves as a memory for the crypto companies to review their marketing strategies, to obtain the necessary permits and comply with the guidelines. This is the only way to avoid punishments and the regulatory standards are met.

The enforcement of the regulations is a step to protect consumers and promote transparency on the cryptom market. The FCA wants to create a safe and regulated environment for everyone involved.

It remains to be seen how the crypto companies will react to these measures. However, it is clear that you have to adapt and ensure that you meet the regulatory standards in order to maintain your business and contribute to the safe acceptance of digital currencies in the United Kingdom.
