Australian Investors and Regulators’ Perspective on Cryptocurrency as a Maturing Asset Class

Crypto currencies and other uses of distributed ledger technology continue to mature as financial products. Investment banks and institutional investors are evaluating ways to invest in them, with adoption rates varying across the globe.
Take a deeper dive into the Australian regulatory, legal and investor advisory aspects of this fast-growing industry. Find out which regulations already exist and what is still needed. Learn what must happen for this asset class to become an accepted investment for institutional investors.
Understand Crypto’s ongoing journey to be a mainstream asset class from multiple perspectives as you consider the role it may play in portfolios.
This is the second in a two-part series on Crypto markets produced by the Australian committee of 100WF. It is not necessary to have attended the first part to participate in this program.
