Through our global network of 11 offices, Appleby’s multi-disciplinary teams serve international clients on all offshore aspects of their business. Our Band-1 ranked FinTech team in the Cayman Islands advises on a broad range of technology and digital assets matters — working with some of the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchanges, issuers and investors. We advise on the virtual assets’ regulatory regime, including the registration and licence application process and ongoing regulatory obligations. We also support with structuring, formation, by-laws and governance structures, token launches and other fundraising/investments, services agreements, software development and IP licensing arrangements, through to M&A and initial public offerings (IPOs) (including special purpose acquisition companies (SPACs)/de-SPAC transactions). Our teams also work with crypto-focused investment funds and investors on digital assets investments and tokenised fund projects.
