As Latin America, the Middle East, and Africa (LAMEA) move from traditional financial custody to blockchain-based asset management, the digital-asset custody market is changing quickly. In Latin America, unstable economies and limited access to banks have sped up the use of cryptocurrencies and stablecoins. In the Middle East and Africa, on the other hand, governments are encouraging fintech innovation through licensing frameworks and digital-asset initiatives. This change has pushed custodians to go beyond basic wallet solutions and offer institutional-grade products that meet regulatory requirements, can be audited, and are insured. The market has changed in different ways in different parts of the world, from crypto wallets for consumers to custody infrastructure backed by banks and institutions that supports tokenization and settlement.
Some of the most important trends that are driving this change are the development of regulatory frameworks, the adoption of these technologies by institutions, and the integration of these technologies into existing ecosystems. Regulators in Latin America are working to improve oversight of cryptocurrencies and virtual asset service providers (VASPs). At the same time, regulators in the Middle East and Africa are setting up fintech hubs and licensing models that draw banks and custodians. Across the region, institutional demand is rising because of the need for remittances, inflation protection, and cross-border digital finance. At the same time, custody services are growing to include tokenized real-world assets, stablecoins, and platforms for settling multiple assets. As the market grows, custodians that combine regulatory trust, cutting-edge technology, and ecosystem integration are best placed to take the lead in the LAMEA digital-asset custody space.

Country Outlook
Brazil’s digital-asset custody market is expanding rapidly under a clear regulatory framework and rising institutional participation. The Brazilian Virtual Assets Law (Law No. 14.478/2022) empowers the Banco Central do Brasil (BCB) to license and supervise virtual asset service providers, reinforcing legitimacy and compliance in custody services. Strong retail and institutional interest, coupled with debates like Bill 311/2025 on self-custody, reflects an evolving ecosystem. The market is shifting from exchange-based trading toward institutional-grade custody, tokenisation, and administration, driven by regulations mandating asset segregation, capital adequacy, and governance standards. Though less crowded than global hubs, competition is intensifying as local fintechs and banks strengthen infrastructure and global players seek entry through partnerships. With accounting reforms and the growth of tokenised asset services, Brazil is positioning itself as a leading digital-asset custody hub in Latin America.
