CheckSig Appoints Crypto Risk Metrics to Supply MiCA White Papers and ESG-data for Crypto-assets
CheckSig, a leading provider of professional crypto solutions in Italy, has appointed Crypto Risk Metrics to provide MiCA white papers as well as crypto-asset ESG data pursuant to Article 66(5) under the “Written-Consent-Model”.
Tim Zölitz, CEO of Crypto Risk Metrics GmbH, explains: “White paper disclosure requirements under MiCA are particularly challenging for CASPs. Often, there are no white papers available that comply with Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2984, preventing trading platforms and offerors from making certain crypto-assets available to the public. With our ‘Written-Consent Model’, we address the need for regulatory compliance while minimising effort for national competent authorities and streamlining the flow of information to investors. Ultimately, this supports consumer protection through clearer, more accessible disclosures.”
Ferdinando Ametrano, CEO of CheckSig, adds: “Regulatory compliance is a top priority for us. Adhering to the law is not optional, but mandatory for CheckSig. This is what made us a leading provider of professional crypto solutions in Italy, and what will set us apart from non-compliant competition. With Crypto Risk Metrics, we have engaged the clear market leader in the field, and we feel comfortable moving forward.”
Under MiCA, trading platforms as well as offerors are required to publish a MiCA-compliant white paper purusant to Articles 4 or 5 of MiCA and in accordance with Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2984. Crypto Risk Metrics supports compliance by enabling parties to rely on “written consent”, allowing the use of a MiCA-compliant white paper from another party, provided that the relevant party has given its written consent.
