On 15 February 2022, BVI Finance published an announcement that the Fusang Exchange, a fully regulated end-to-end digital securities exchange in Asia has been included to the list of BVI recognised exchanges.

As a BVI recognised exchange, companies that are proposing to list on the Fusang Exchange will benefit from a pre-screening process in accordance with the applicable anti-money laundering and counter terrorism financing provisions, which will lead to a reduced time to have the companies listed. This time saving will certainly have advantages from a commercial perspective for companies that are looking to be listed on a digital exchange.

According to the article, Fusang Exchange recently announced its own initial public offering on its main board and expects that the admission to the recognised list of exchanges in the BVI will be a ‘game changer’ for BVI registered companies in Asia, especially since the digital asset space is seeing unprecedented growth in the region.
