- Key Concerns and Requests: The NOB raised several points, including requests for flexibility in the timing of registration obligations for crypto asset operators, a non-imposition of fines for non-registration under arguable circumstances, and adjustments to the reporting deadline to alleviate administrative burdens.
- Clarifications and Expansions Proposed: The NOB seeks clarification on legal protections for non-reporting individuals, the nature of user notifications, and sanctions for non-compliance, along with proposals to expand the definition of ‘Reportable User’ and improve customer identification processes during due diligence.
