Start with the activity. Build the framework around it.
Corporate establishment, governance and application coordination for businesses evaluating virtual asset services in the Cayman Islands.
Discuss your virtual asset businessAssessment framework
The questions that shape the review
Services
Describe exchange, transfer, custody, platform or other activities in practical terms.
Assets and control
Who holds assets, controls keys, authorises transfers and maintains records?
Customers and locations
Who the business serves and where its people and operations are located.
Governance and compliance
Ownership, management, reporting and the responsibilities of appointed providers.
Registration, licensing and entity incorporation are distinct matters. The applicable process must be confirmed against the proposed services; an application does not itself authorise operations.
Service scope
Support shaped around your structure
Operating-model documentation
Organise the proposed services, ownership, counterparties, governance and control arrangements.
Corporate and application support
Coordinate entity establishment and supporting materials for the relevant registration or licensing process.
Continuing governance
Support board records, agreed corporate obligations and coordination of regulatory information requests.
Practical questions
Before you begin
Is every digital asset business a VASP?
Do not assume classification from the project’s name or technology. Describe the services and operating arrangements so the relevant position can be assessed.
Can you assist with a foundation linked to a protocol?
Foundation governance and virtual asset activity should be considered separately. Provide the foundation’s role, the protocol’s activities and the persons performing each function.
Does Bell Rock guarantee an application outcome?
No. Bell Rock’s role is the agreed corporate, governance and coordination support. Regulatory decisions remain with the relevant authority.
