Frequently asked questions
Why is banking so hard with crypto wealth?
Banks are required to verify the source of funds for AML compliance. Crypto presents unique challenges: decentralised exchanges don't issue statements, self-custody wallets don't have account histories, and DeFi activity can be difficult to trace. Most compliance teams aren't trained to evaluate these sources.
What does a source-of-funds package include?
Exchange account statements, blockchain transaction records, wallet-to-wallet transfer narratives, original acquisition evidence (mining records, early purchase confirmations), tax declarations, and a written narrative explaining the full history of the assets.
Which banks accept crypto-origin funds?
Several UAE banks have established processes, including Emirates NBD, Mashreq, and RAKBANK. Internationally, banks in Singapore and Switzerland have crypto-friendly divisions. We match you to the right bank based on your profile and needs.
What if I can't prove the origin of all my crypto?
This is common, especially for early Bitcoin holders or DeFi users. We work with blockchain analytics tools and compliance specialists to reconstruct transaction histories where possible. We'll be honest about what's achievable and what risks remain.
Do I need separate personal and corporate accounts?
Yes, if you have a company. Keeping personal and corporate finances separate is a fundamental compliance requirement. We help set up both, ensuring each account has appropriate documentation for its funding source.
Can you help with crypto-to-fiat conversion?
We guide you on compliant conversion routes β regulated OTC desks, exchange withdrawals, and structured conversion strategies that maintain a clean audit trail. We don't provide the conversion service itself but connect you with licensed providers.
