Société Générale’s SG Forge division earns the first-ever crypto license from the Autorité des Marchés Financiers, allowing them to conduct a full range of crypto operations in France.

SG Forge, now fully authorized by the AMF as a digital asset service provider (DASP), can provide services including the buying, selling and exchanging of digital assets and custody services. The new license distinguishes SG Forge from numerous other crypto firms operating in France, including Binance, the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchange, which are registered but do not hold a license.

Jean-Marc Stenger, the CEO of SG Forge, stated that this is the first step in “pioneering role in the crypto assets ecosystem” in a press release on July 19 The DASP is a difficult license to obtain in France, as it “it demonstrates a comprehensive level of security and reliability of compliance, internal control and cybersecurity processes and systems.”
