Definition ∞ Risk management frameworks are structured approaches used to identify, assess, mitigate, and monitor potential risks. In digital asset markets, these frameworks provide systematic guidelines for organizations to manage the unique financial, operational, technological, and regulatory risks associated with cryptocurrencies and blockchain technology. They involve establishing policies, procedures, and controls to protect assets, ensure compliance, and maintain market integrity. Effective frameworks are essential for institutional participation and investor protection.
