Crypto-Assets Management Survey - 9 February 2022

Looking back, 2021 has certainly been a busy year for the crypto-assets industry with significant developments across all verticals and a strengthening of its global footprint. While 2022 is starting with less euphoric markets, we expect a pivotal year and a breakthrough in the asset and wealth management industry as new products and services are brought to market.

In that context, the LHoFT and PwC Luxembourg, with the active participation of the ALFI, have the pleasure to hold the closing event of the first edition of the Crypto-Assets Management Survey in Luxembourg, taking place physically and virtually on 9 February, from 5.30pm.

This first survey took place in Q4 2021 and gathered more than 120 respondents and we are looking forward to presenting the key findings. It will be the opportunity to discuss further about the state of the demand and potential of crypto-assets for the asset and wealth management industry in Luxembourg, as well as the roadblocks for Luxembourg as a major European financial centre, to develop a footprint in this fast-moving area.

Date

 The session will be held both physically* and virtually on 9 February 2022 from 5.30pm.

Onsite venue: PwC Luxembourg Crystal Park, 2 rue Gerhard Mercator, L-2182 Luxembourg. Parking will be available on site.
