Getting a Handle on How to Hold Cryptocurrencies

01.19.18

As cryptocurrencies start to become more accepted as an investable asset class, existing and new private fund sponsors, professional investors and institutional investors are examining the challenges of holding cryptocurrencies as part of existing portfolios or newly dedicated allocations. Many of these challenges are operational in nature, for example, how can these assets be held and accounted for? Others are regulatory in nature, for example, how do existing securities laws require investment advisers hold and safe-keep these assets?

An age-old dilemma presents itself again in the area: How do you apply rules and laws to new technologies that did not exist at the time the laws were written? READ HERE

Search Tips:

You may use the wildcard symbol (*) as a root expander.  A search for "anti*" will find not only "anti", but also "anti-trust", "antique", etc.

Entering two terms together in a search field will behave as though an "OR" is being used.  For example, entering "Antique Motorcars" as a Client Name search will find results with either word in the Client Name.

Operators

AND and OR may be used in a search.  Note: they must be capitalized, e.g., "Project AND Finance." 

The + and - sign operators may be used.  The + sign indicates that the term immediately following is required, while the - sign indicates to omit results that contain that term. E.g., "+real -estate" says results must have "real" but not "estate".

To perform an exact phrase search, surround your search phrase with quotation marks.  For example, "Project Finance".

Searches are not case sensitive.
