Cards & Payments Asia is the region’s most established event on payments disruption and innovation. One swipe and the balance is topped up. Back in 1996 we launched the conference as an opportunity for the card manufacturing industry to THE LIFE meet and discuss the most pressing issues of the day. As the payments industry evolved, so too did the conference, charting as it grew the rise of the web, the growth of digital payments and the changed expectations of the connected customer.

  • Whither Policing Cryptocurrency in Malaysia?*
    25 (2) 2017 IIUMLJ 179 - 196 WHITHER POLICING CRYPTOCURRENCY IN MALAYSIA?* Sonny Zulhuda Afifah binti Sayuti ABSTRACT Cryptocurrency, like Bitcoin, is a digital currency in which encryption techniques are used to regulate the generation of units of currency and verify the transfer of funds, operating independently of a central bank. It is an emerging financial technology enabled by innovation, increasingly popular among global Internet users, and more interestingly, it challenges the existing financial and regulatory rules on the currency and payment systems of the world today. On the other side, certain cryptocurrency like Bitcoin, have been actively used as payment tools for illicit transactions. Both the “promising” and "challenging" faces of cryptocurrency trigger causes for concern for policy makers, not only from financial sector, but also legal and technological sectors. The decentralised nature of cryptocurrency creates unique problems for the government to regulate or impose any regulatory requirements. This article argues that, in order for Malaysia to remain at the forefront of financial and digital innovation, it is timely to look at the question on whether to formulate certain policy and regulatory framework on the use of cryptocurrency in Malaysian market. The answer can pave the way for Malaysian digital citizens to potentially grab the opportunities made possible by the cryptocurrency technology. For this purpose, the researchers seek to study the features of cryptocurrency and the experiences from policymakers in other jurisdictions in dealing with the matter. * Acknowledgments: The researchers wish to thank the Ministry of Higher Education of Malaysia for providing a support under the Fundamental Research Grant Scheme (FRGS) that has helped this research and publication.
