Cyprus Securities and Exchange Commission (CySEC) plans to conduct on-site audits and desk reviews of authorized crypto asset service providers from late 2026 to mid-2027, focusing on operational resilience and technical security in digital asset custody. This activity is part of an EU-wide coordinated supervisory effort led by ESMA to enhance regulatory convergence and investor protection in the crypto sector.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Crypto & Web3.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

Cyprus raises the bar for crypto custodians with mandatory audits, opening a compliance gate you must clear this year. Your company cannot afford weak security controls if it wants to maintain access to the Cyprus market.
