BCB Group

📣 BCB Group now supports PYUSD! 📈 Stablecoins are on the rise. According to CCData, in September, stablecoins saw an increase in total market cap for the 12th consecutive month. Price stability, regulatory backing and accessibility make stablecoins an attractive bridge between traditional and decentralised finance. What’s more, stablecoins can facilitate fast, low-cost international transfers as they bypass traditional financial institution fees and processing delays; viably a faster and cheaper way to move value internationally. 💡 At BCB, we are witnessing this trend firsthand, with growing demand for stablecoin trading and custody solutions. We are excited to expand our offering by adding PayPal USD (PYUSD) by Paxos to our growing list of supported stablecoins, all easily accessible alongside fiat currencies in our unified BCB Portal. ➡️ Trade and manage PYUSD effortlessly with BCB! 🔎 To learn more contact our team 🔗 https://lnkd.in/eQq_jJVH $PYUSD #Paxos #Stablecoin DISCLAIMER: BCB Group products and services are not available to retail investors.

This #WorldMentalHealthDay the theme set by the World Federation of Mental Health is workplace mental health. At BCB Group we are committed to supporting the mental health of each and every team member. It isn’t just a tick box for us, we know everyone in the company is pivotal to our success and we want to ensure people feel supported to thrive and deliver their best. As part of this, we have a group of volunteers who are our well-being champions. They are passionate about removing the stigma of mental health in the workplace, running company-wide events to talk about the importance of speaking about own our mental health and how to support others. As Kym Routledge, our Group Head of Compliance & UK MLRO, explains: “I truly know that I’m lucky to have a loving, caring family backing me and that I get to work at a firm like BCB that offers genuine mental health support from well being champions, colleagues that care and listen, and non disclosure mental health days.  I’m proud that both my team and I can use mental health days without question or prejudice. As today marks World Mental Health day, I think we all need to reflect and ensure we’re looking at mental health with acceptance and maturity. The majority of us will face battles of one kind or another, either personally or supporting family, friends and colleagues, so it’s time to stop the sniggering, whispering and speculation! Let’s be honest, no one truly knows what it’s like to walk in another’s shoes, whether we choose to show it or not, we ALL have our struggles, challenges and anxieties that we fight, survive and attempt to repair daily…but how great is it when we don’t have to do it alone! A problem shared is a problem halved and my BCB family certainly strive to help us all! Remember ‘kindness = happiness,’ be mindful not just today but everyday.” We'd like to thank you, BCB well being champions, for all that you do 🫶 #MentalHealthMatters #MentalHealthAwareness #MentalHealthInTheWorkplace #WorkplaceWellbeing

BCB Group: Working with regulators benefits everyone As Digital Assets Week closes for another year, one key message emerged - A growing collaboration between policymakers and payments innovators is accelerating the adoption of digital assets and tokenisation across European markets. In her keynote, Sasha Mills, Executive Director, Financial Market Infrastructure, Bank of England, commended the speed of innovation that has become the norm in the digital assets ecosystem in the UK. BCB's Co-founder and CEO, Oliver Tonkin, said the increasing speed of adoption of these innovative approaches is allowing the companies that have embraced regulation to gain an advantage over competitors who have not. He added that the forthcoming Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation (MiCA) – due to come into force across the EU in December 2024 - will offer BCB Group the opportunity to show the work it has put in to ensure its clients have peace of mind. “Part of what BCB has been doing in getting these new regulatory licences is making the point that you can use us for payments, but you can also use us for crypto with one integration leveraging the licences and products we have. People want integration and multiple use cases.  “In years gone by, you needed to go to one partner for each of those things. I suspect everybody wants a bit of redundancy. We have the licences, the partnerships, and we have the tech. The opportunity for us is to be the infrastructure provider of choice.” Read the article to find out more about how working with regulators benefits all and how we have invested considerable time and resources in building our regulatory status in Europe in recent years: https://lnkd.in/e_JV6_qN #mica #regulation #digitalassets #EMI #FCA
