VFA, Blockchain & Fintech

Being the first country to have its regulatory framework for Virtual Financial Assets, Cryptocurrency and Blockchain technology, Malta can be considered at the forefront for embracing this revolutionary innovation. As a fully registered agent we can act on behalf of our clients and help them set up a Fintech operation in Malta.

Fintech – Malta’s Beating Heart

Malta is showcasing itself as the Fintech Hub of the Mediterranean. Malta is the first EU Member State and country in the world to have launched a solid legislative framework in the Virtual Financial Assets, Blockchain and Cryptocurrency spaces, whilst also providing a new framework for start-ups and established entities who are desirous to register and certify their Distributed Ledger Technologies.

The Island is also encouraging start-ups to test their products and systems in a sandbox environment. This is seen happening in relation to Gaming Companies and the Malta Financial Services Authority is also in the process of creating its own sandbox and Fintech Hub Incubator. The University of Malta, together with the Malta Information & Technology Agency has also issued its own innovation hub. Fintech companies in Malta have already been witnessed to disrupt several sectors such as payments, insurance, investment, and risk management, and this is just the beginning.
