Asia has the world's most diverse digital asset regulatory landscape, and for fund managers the complexity is a structuring problem to solve at inception. This regulatory-precision guide maps the manager-level frameworks across Singapore (MAS), Hong Kong (SFC), Japan (FSA), and China, explains why the manager's local licence and the fund's Cayman domicile are separate questions, sets out the critical CIMA decision between VASP registration and standard fund registration, and addresses custody segregation, prime brokerage, and the tax treatment of a Cayman digital asset fund.

Economic Substance in Practice: A Cayman Compliance Guide for Fund Managers
Economic substance is one of the areas where Cayman fund managers most often assume they are compliant when they are not. The fund itself is usually carved out of the regime, so the manager concludes the question is settled. It is not: the management entity, the general partner, management company, or corporate director, can carry its own substance obligation, and a registered office is not the same as economic substance. In our latest piece, we set out which entities are in scope, the three substance tests, how the DITC reporting works, and the two misconceptions that lead managers into an avoidable failure.

Cayman-Domiciled Funds for Southeast Asian Managers: Thailand, Vietnam, and Indonesia
