“Building a constructive relationship with regulators in every jurisdiction in which we operate is incredibly important as we march toward our mission of increasing economic freedom in every corner of the world,” said Nana Murugesan, Vice President, International and Business Development at Coinbase. “Gaining this regulatory approval is a testament to our close collaboration and positive working relationship with the Italian financial regulators.”
