CARF Readiness: Determining Scope and Taking First Steps
For crypto-asset businesses that have not yet started implementing CARF, the first step is not necessarily to build a reporting engine. It is to determine whether the business is in scope, which entities and products require analysis, and what information is needed to support a defensible conclusion.
In this episode, Mercy Joseph, Managing Director in Singapore, and Chris Kotarba, Managing Director in the United States, discuss practical steps for assessing CARF readiness. They explore how to identify whether a business may be a Reporting Crypto-Asset Service Provider, why contractual labels and product names can be misleading, and why businesses should follow the full transaction chain when determining reporting obligations.
The discussion also considers the interaction between CARF, CRS 2.0 and Form 1099-DA, including the need for a common customer and transaction-data foundation while maintaining separate rules and reconciliation processes for each regime. Mercy and Chris also highlight the importance of governance, including clear accountability across Tax, Compliance, Legal, Operations, Data and Technology.
