A consultation was announced in the Budget today proposing the introduction of a new crypto asset Reporting framework (“CARF”).
The new standard addresses tax non-compliance through the use of crypto assets and is being legislated alongside an update to the Common Reporting Standard (“CRS2”) which updates the framework on offshore accounts.
