Strict crypto regulations in the United Kingdom are prompting institutional clients to seek offshore routes for digital asset exposure, according to Jason Keogh. Speaking at the iFX Expo International 2025, Keogh noted that many UK-based firms are now facing Fusion Capital through entities registered in more flexible jurisdictions. Regulations in the UK “Because of the situation with the uh regulation in UK which is tough, a lot of the institutional clients are going to offshore entities to facilitate their crypto to so when they face us they can face us via the EU, via St lucia, Canada a multi multitude of different regulations and jurisdictions which is very accommodating to them.” While Fusion Capital itself partners with FCA-regulated custodian Archax and provides institutional-only digital asset liquidity, demand is increasingly coming from brokers and asset managers operating through non-UK regulatory frameworks. Outlook on MiCA Regulations Keogh added that clearer and more accommodating rules will be key to unlocking institutional adoption domestically. He pointed to the upcoming MiCA regulation in Europe as a potential turning point. “Whether you like it or not, and it doesn't matter what asset class, you have to have regulation, and it has to be good regulation. And MiCA is going to come in and it's going to take the crypto world to the next level.” “And that's good because that will give clients comfort, higher regulation, so I think until that's fully implemented, we're kind of on hold for the minute. But soon as that comes into play, I think you'll see a really big uh uptake going forward.”
