The purpose of an Initial Coin Offering (ICO) or Token Generating Event (TGE) is to raise money from the public using blockchain technology and assets.

Despite technological development, laws and regulations cannot be disrupted. Because money is being raised from the public, an ICO requires advisory on several aspects, legal included. Despite not being specifically regulated in most jurisdictions, an ICO must stay within the legal framework applicable to similar realities and comply with rules from adjacent areas such as Banking, Tax, Money Laundering and Securities law.

Regulations are not uniform worldwide. Enterprises looking to launch an ICO should be aware of each jurisdiction’s rules and requirements.

The firm’s global footprint enables enterprises to tap into a comprehensive network of advisors and lawyers.
