One of the top questions I get from aspiring digital asset fund managers is: How do I access non-US exchanges or token projects that bar US person participation? Unfortunately, the unsatisfying answer is: it depends!
There are myriad potential solutions to this problem, but the extent to which any of them might work for you depends on many factors.
Key Points From This Episode:
- Why certain non-US market participants do not want US Person investors.
- How they use different definitions of “US Person”.
- Why reading the fine print is critical.
- Potential structuring solutions.
- Why making false representations is always a bad idea.
- An introduction to counterparty risk.
