Canada Introduces New Crypto Custody Rules to Protect Investors After QuadrigaCX Collapse

Following the QuadrigaCX collapse in 2019, which resulted in the loss of $123 million in customer funds, Canada’s Investment Regulatory Organization (CIRO) has introduced new crypto custody rules for exchanges. The regulations aim to protect investors by enforcing stronger custody arrangements, improved internal controls, and clear separation of client assets from company funds. The framework adopts a risk-based approach, requiring higher-risk firms to meet stricter standards while allowing flexibility for lower-risk platforms. CIRO will actively update the rules as new threats emerge and has the authority to investigate misconduct and impose penalties. The move reflects Canada’s protective regulatory stance, bringing crypto custody under existing securities laws.
