The Crypto Asset Reporting Framework is a regime that has been proposed by the OECD and will be implemented in the UK and internationally.

The purpose of the webinar is to provide an introduction to the regime as well as to provide insights into the areas that members at UK Finance should be considering when the regime’s reporting requirements become live in 2026. 

We will hear from David Wren, KMPG, who will provide a tax technical overview of the regime, and Corinna Hedtke from Standard Chartered Bank who will provide insight into how industry participants will deal with practical application and implementation of the regime. 

The key learning of this information is to provide awareness of what the regime is and why it is relevant to the audience.

In this webinar we are discussing:

  • An overview of the Crypto-Assets Reporting Framework including the plan for adoption in 50 jurisdictions by 2026
  • How CARF will apply to blockchain and digital asset use cases for banks
  • Challenges for adoption, including alignment with AML/KYC requirements
  • Case studies: The application of CARF to banking and payments use cases including:
    • Custody of crypto-assets
    • Tokenisation of assets for repo and collateral purposes
    • Tokenised deposits and crypto-as-payment
  • What banks can do now to prepare for CARF compliance, including an overview from a member bank on how they are preparing
