What insurance should Crypto and Digital Asset businesses consider ?
Why should Crypto and Digital Asset businesses consider insurance?
Asset Protection
Digital asset businesses handle and store significant amounts of cryptocurrencies and other digital assets on behalf of their clients. Insurance coverage can protect these assets from risks such as theft, hacking incidents, fraud, or loss caused by technical failures.
Regulatory Compliance
Digital asset businesses operate in a rapidly evolving regulatory environment. Insurance coverage can demonstrate to regulators the business’s commitment to consumer protection. Some jurisdictions may even require digital asset businesses to maintain specific insurance coverage as part of their licensing or regulatory obligations.
Business Continuity
Insurance coverage, such as business interruption insurance, can help digital asset businesses recover financially and resume operations in the event of a covered incident that disrupts their business. It can provide coverage for additional expenses, data recovery, and help mitigate the financial impact of downtime or operational interruptions.
Third-Party Liability
Digital asset businesses may face claims or legal actions from clients or other parties due to errors, omissions, or failures in their services. Insurance coverage, such as professional liability or errors and omissions (E&O) insurance, can protect against these claims
Attract Investment & Talent
With a comprehensive insurance programme digital asset companies can attract investment to their business by offering protection to directors and advisers in addition to attracting the best talent in a competitive labour market
Client Confidence
Insurance coverage can enhance client confidence and trust in digital asset businesses. It demonstrates that the business takes risk management seriously and has measures in place to protect client assets and mitigate potential losses.
Why work with Continuum?
Continuum have been working with digital asset companies in Asia since 2017, helping everyone from exchanges to funds to custodians with their insurance needs. Our in-depth knowledge of both the industry and the appetite of insurers allows to advise clients on the appropriate solutions to help them protect their business and offer value to their clients. We take a client-centric approach, appreciating that insurance may be a future requirement rather than an immediate need and advise on the timing of policy inception as well as helping with payment schedules and budgeting requirements.
