The Brazilian central bank mandates cryptocurrency service providers to undergo independent financial audits
The Central Bank of Brazil officially tightens the licensing regulations for Virtual Asset Service Providers (VASP) starting today, requiring all cryptocurrency companies applying for or renewing licenses to undergo independent financial audits. The audit scope covers compliance with anti-money laundering (AML) and counter-terrorism financing (CFT), the segregation of customer funds and the platform's own funds, risk management mechanisms, and employee training. The auditing institutions must be registered with the Brazilian Securities Commission (CVM).
Previously, Brazil legislated to establish a regulatory framework for virtual assets in 2022 and set up the VASP licensing category in November 2025. This new regulation further strengthens compliance control over the cryptocurrency industry.
