It’s been 2 years of work on the Code of Practice and finally, we’re rolling it out. A lot has happened in the 2 years, including the @FATFNews Virtual Asset guidelines published in June 2019, formed @idaxaofficial at the @V20Osaka summit at the G20 leaders' summit in Osaka,

— Anson Zeall (@AnsonZeall) August 14, 2020

The Payment Services Act of Singapore says that crypto-related businesses must obtain a license to operate in the country. The act was updated a few months ago. The new crypto code for Singapore aims to meet these requirements while improving the compliance standards for the crypto businesses.

Expect tough anti-money laundering laws

Specifically, the new guidance lays down a strong emphasis on anti-money laundering and terror financing. It provides a standardized approach to tackle the menace of illicit financing activities through improved KYC practices.

Anson Zeall of ACCESS states that the guidance aims to help both local and international virtual payment businesses by facilitating them with license-related services. The code was developed after two years of brainstorming to make sure that it meets the Singaporean regulatory standards.

The new crypto code also adheres to the 2019 guidelines issued by the Financial Action Task Force for Singapore. The supervisory frameworks suggested by FATF are also featured in the new code. The new crypto code for Singapore is evolutionary and will bring in necessary changes as time progresses.
