巴西银行巨头伊塔乌正式注册为巴西央行的加密中介和保管服务

Brazilian banking giant Itaú Unibanco has formally completed its registration with the Central Bank of Brazil to provide cryptocurrency intermediation and custody solutions. The filing was submitted right as the country's central bank closed its official regulatory licensing window for crypto asset service providers. By securing regulatory compliance, Itaú becomes one of the primary traditional financial institutions in Latin America to offer integrated crypto services under a formal framework. Brazil has positioned itself as a progressive market for digital asset regulation, creating legal certainty for major commercial banks. Itaú's move is expected to drive higher adoption among retail and institutional banking clients across the region. Increased banking integration provides safer pathways for capital entry into localized digital asset markets.
