About Us

On January  11, 2023, El Salvador enacted the Digital Asset Issuance Law. The Law establishes a bespoke regime for the issuance of digital assets and other digital asset services such as trading platforms, custodians and brokers. It sets out to encourage economic development, ensure market integrity and create safeguards for investors in digital assets. It also offers certain flexible, novel features that have the potential to create regulatory and market efficiencies well suited to the fast-paced and rapidly evolving digital asset market. The jurisdictions' investor protection mandate is also well served by robust market participant obligations and regulatory sanctioning powers. The Law will likely reinforce El Salvador’s reputation as a jurisdiction supportive of digital assets.
