Crysk protects banks from the financial crime dangers of crypto.
Even if your institution does not offer crypto services, your customers invest, trade, raise capital, use Bitcoin ATMs, or access unregulated crypto cards. Criminals exploit these channels for money laundering, fraud, sanctions evasion, and tax crime. That leaves your bank directly exposed to regulatory, reputational, and financial damage.
Crysk exposes where crypto puts your bank at risk, ensure AML/CFT compliance, and embed solutions that strengthen operations, raise compliance standards, and build the expertise your organization needs to stay ahead.
The Challenge: Crypto Risk in Traditional Finance
As crypto adoption accelerates across global markets, financial institutions face unprecedented challenges in monitoring and controlling client crypto activities. The traditional banking sector must now deal with crypto that operate outside conventional regulatory frameworks while developing rapidly.
FEC analysts, compliance officers and managers find themselves navigating uncharted territory, where legacy systems and processes fall short of addressing the unique compliance requirements of crypto.
This is where specialized expertise becomes not just valuable, but essential. Financial institutions need partners who understand both traditional finance and the intricate world of crypto: Crysk is your partner.
Meet Eric Groothedde, founder of Crysk
"Crypto presents both opportunities and challenges for financial institutions—captivating, disruptive, and highly complex at the same time. With markets, regulations, and technology evolving rapidly, institutions must navigate these complexities to serve clients effectively, grow their business, manage stakeholders, and safeguard against financial crime. Crysk provides clarity in this landscape, enabling your organization to apply a risk-based approach, reduce costs, capture business opportunities, and engage stakeholders with confidence."
Eric Groothedde is the top expert in the Netherlands in the area of banking and financial economic crime crypto risk management. As former Innovation Compliance as well as Digital Assets Strategy lead for ING Bank, Director Government Affairs & Policy for Binance, Senior Policy Advisor for the Dutch Banking Association and Lecturer at the University of Amsterdam, Eric combines expertise with excellent communication and execution skills.
Since Eric launched Crysk, he helped multiple clients with training and consulting services on crypto risk management, including the Dutch Authority of Financial Markets (AFM), Rabobank and ABN AMRO, leading and developing Crypto Programs in Group FEC at executive level.
