The South African Financial Intelligence Centre (FIC) has proposed a directive on the transfer of crypto assets. The directive follows the licensing of 75 crypto asset service providers (CASPs) by the Financial Sector Conduct Authority of South Africa. The FIC aims to tighten regulation by requiring CASPs to impose more detailed and stringent requirements on digital transactions. The scope of the directive applies to institutions facilitating domestic or cross-border transfers of crypto assets. CASPs acting as intermediaries must comply with new "travel rules" that require the exchange of specific transaction details.
