Regulation Timeline
2021
The Central Bank directed TACC to stop publicity and activity for lacking authorisation to conduct financial business.
Official source for these events: Central Bank of Liberia: 2021 enforcement notice on the unlicensed Abundance Community Coin (supports: regulatory timeline)
Regulatory Framework
In 2021, the Central Bank of Liberia said it had not authorised TACC to conduct financial business and directed it to stop publicity and activity. The 2021 AML/CFT Act defines virtual asset service providers (VASPs) and includes VASPs among reporting entities in the AML/CFT regime. These sources do not establish general authorisation for platforms, P2P purchases, or crypto products: verify any current licence directly with the authorities.
