Brazil's Itaú Unibanco becomes first bank to formalize crypto brokerage

TradingGain Newsroom·2d ago·28 Oct 2026, 10:07 UTC

Itaú Unibanco, Brazil's largest lender, notified the central bank of its crypto trading and custody operations on Tuesday. It is the first bank to formalize crypto brokerage under the new rules, ahead of an Oct. 30 deadline. For traders, this may point to clearer rules for regulated crypto services in Brazil.

Why it matters

Itaú Unibanco has formally notified Brazil's central bank of its crypto operations.
The filing covers both crypto trading and custody, making the bank's activity official under the rules.
The move came before the Oct. 30 deadline, so compliance may matter for other firms too.

What to watch next

Watch whether other Brazilian banks file under the new rules before the Oct. 30 deadline.
