Zodia Custody, a crypto asset custody provider serving institutional clients, has been granted a Markets in Crypto Assets (MiCA) license by Luxembourg’s Commission de Surveillance du Secteur Financier (CSSF).

The authorisation allows Zodia Custody Europe to provide regulated digital asset custody services with passporting rights across EU member states.

Sophie Bowler, Chief Risk and Compliance Officer at Zodia Custody, said:

“Regulatory authorisation from the CSSF is a milestone for Zodia Custody Europe and demonstrates our commitment to providing licensed and authorised digital asset custody services for institutional clients.”

The company also announced the appointment of Daniel Soriano as an Authorised Manager in Luxembourg, alongside Nagata.

Soriano brings experience from European technology institutions.

At group level, Zodia Custody holds registrations and authorisations with several regulators, including the UK Financial Conduct Authority, the Central Bank of Ireland, the ADGM Financial Services Regulatory Authority, and the Hong Kong Companies Registry.
