Bovill congratulate Archax on becoming the first FCA regulated digital securities exchange

NEWS RELEASE: Archax has today become the first ever FCA regulated digital securities exchange and custodian in the UK. Bovill congratulate Archax on this landmark achievement, which represents a significant milestone in the development of the digital assets market in the UK.

Bovill partnered with Archax early in their journey towards FCA authorisation, helping to design a compliance framework fit for the digital asset world. That partnership then extended throughout the authorisation process, with Bovill providing guidance and support during crucial stages of the FCA’s application review process.

Damon Batten, Head of Capital Markets at Bovill commented:

“We are delighted to have worked closely with Archax as they progressed towards their goal of FCA authorisation. Now that their innovative model has attained regulated status, we are excited to see the next stages in the development of this truly ground-breaking new market.”

Graham Rodford, Founder and CEO of Archax commented:

“We selected Bovill for their pragmatic approach, depth of understanding of the FCA authorisation process, and specialism in the Multilateral Trading Facility sector. It was great to have their expertise at hand throughout the FCA’s review.”
