Global Reach, Local Presence: OSL Brasil Files for PSAV Authorization with Brazil's Central Bank

The Brazilian Path: Trust and Security

By applying for PSAV authorization, OSL Brasil commits to the standards the BCB now requires of every virtual asset service provider. For Brazilian customers, that means assets held by a locally regulated entity that must segregate customer funds, maintain minimum capital, run robust anti-money laundering and identification controls, and meet the BCB's cyber security and incident response requirements.

Global Reach, Local Presence

Brazil ranked first worldwide in Chainalysis's 2026 Global Crypto Adoption Index. But from 6 November, BCB-supervised banks may no longer transact with unauthorized providers, and several firms have withdrawn. OSL is moving the other way: incorporating locally and investing in Brazilian rails, banking relationships and team.

Regulation as a Foundation

OSL Group was built in one of the world’s most tightly regulated crypto markets. For institutions choosing a long-term partner, that dual standing is the differentiator — backed by regulated operations across Asia, Australia, the United States, Canada and Europe, and more than 50 trading and payment licences held or in progress worldwide.

In its 2026 interim results, OSL reported revenue of approximately US$7.114 billion, up 65.8%, with payments contributing 88%, and transaction volume of about US$21.92 billion, up 241.3%. Frost & Sullivan ranked OSL the world's largest stablecoin payment infrastructure company by B2B stablecoin payment volume in 2025.
