Mandatory Data Exchange

Definition

Mandatory data exchange refers to the compulsory sharing of specific information between regulated entities and supervisory authorities, or among different authorities themselves. In the digital asset sector, this often involves the automated or required transmission of transaction data, customer identities, and other relevant operational metrics. Such directives are put in place to enhance regulatory oversight, combat financial crime, and ensure market integrity. It removes discretion in data sharing for compliance purposes.
