This environment demands a new kind of readiness where compliance and scalability evolve together. Firms must ensure that every digital-asset transaction can be traced, reported, and audited with the same precision as traditional securities, even as volumes surge and regulatory scrutiny increases. Rather than embedding compliance as a core internal function, many organizations are turning to specialized providers like Sovos and Ledgible to manage complex reporting and regulatory requirements. This allows firms to stay focused on their core competencies, such as trading, custody, and client service, while maintaining the agility and precision needed to navigate an increasingly regulated market.
