YPOG advises Boerse Stuttgart Digital on obtaining the first EU-wide MiCAR authorization
Hamburg, January 21, 2025 – YPOG has advised Boerse Stuttgart Digital Custody GmbH on obtaining an authorization under the Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation (MiCAR). This makes the subsidiary of Boerse Stuttgart Group the first German provider with the corresponding authorization to provide its services cross-border throughout the EU. It further strengthens Boerse Stuttgart Digital's position as one of the leading regulated infrastructure providers for banks, brokers and asset managers in Europe.
MiCAR is a decisive step in the harmonization of regulatory standards for trading and custody of crypto assets within the EU. The new regulatory “level playing field” makes it easier for companies to access a harmonized European crypto market and replaces the fragmented national regulations.
Boerse Stuttgart Digital received the MiCAR authorization within a few weeks of the adoption of the necessary German laws, which will also strengthen its competitiveness in the European context.
