Cross-Border Policy

Definition

Cross-border policy refers to regulations governing activities across national boundaries. These are legal and administrative frameworks designed to manage transactions, data flows, and operational standards that extend beyond a single country’s jurisdiction. In the realm of digital assets, such policies address issues like international cryptocurrency transfers, global exchange operations, and the harmonization of anti-money laundering (AML) rules. Their aim is to ensure consistency, prevent regulatory arbitrage, and mitigate risks associated with the borderless nature of blockchain technology.
