Rules Holdings (BVI) VASP license approved!

18 Dec 2024
|

Harneys BVI Regulatory team has advised on a further Virtual Assets Service Provider (VASP) application, which has been approved by the Financial Services Commission (the Commission) under the Virtual Assets Service Providers Act (the VASPA).

The successful applicant, Rules Holding (BVI) Limited (Rules), currently operates a virtual asset exchange and provides custodial services by way of a platform named “bumba.global”. Rules is one of the first exchange and custody providers that has been approved under the new framework, and shall offer a diverse product portfolio to its clients across Latin America, the Middle East, Asia, and Europe as it expands its operations.

The Harneys Regulatory team secured approval from the Commission in November. The Harneys Corporate team, led by Partner George Weston with support from Senior Associate James Kitching, provided corporate support.

David Miller, Chief Executive Officer at Rules commented: “We built our business based on first principles of how financial services companies including VASPS should be governed, secured and regulated. This approval is a testament to the team’s ability to execute on that vison. The team at Harneys have excelled in assisting us from the start. Special thanks to Myles Chingara who led on the regulatory side and also George Weston and James Kitching who helped on the corporate side. We look forward to working with you going forward.”
