Regulated first.
Built second.

CityZeen is supervised by the Luxembourg CSSF, operates under the MiFID II professional client framework, complies with AIFMD and SFDR, and is targeting authorisation under France's Régime Pilote in Q2 2026. Regulation is not our constraint — it is our distribution.

The Regulatory Stack

Nine frameworks.
One platform.

Every trade executed on CityZeen must satisfy a stack of overlapping regulations. We have designed every platform layer so compliance is not an overlay — it is the substrate. This list is the substrate.

Legal Topology

Four entities.
Three continents.

CityZeen operates through four jurisdictionally-aligned entities. Each was chosen for the regulator, the tax treaty network, and the local market CityZeen needs to reach. This is institutional-grade legal engineering, not regulatory arbitrage.

Data & Investor Protection

Your data.
Only your data.

Data protection, investor rights and cross-border integrity are not marketing claims — they are contractual obligations CityZeen carries to every counterparty. Here is how they are structured.

Protection 01 · GDPR

Data minimisation & subject rights

Only the data required to meet KYC, tax and regulatory obligations is collected. You retain the right of access, rectification, portability and erasure. Data is stored in EU regions with full DPA documentation.

Protection 02 · Custody

Asset segregation under Swiss bank oversight

Client cash and token assets are held in segregated omnibus structures at Swissquote, a Swiss-licensed bank under FINMA supervision. Not commingled with operational funds.

Protection 03 · Compensation

Luxembourg investor compensation scheme

Institutional investors subscribing through the Luxembourg AIF benefit from coverage under the Système d'indemnisation des investisseurs Luxembourg (SIIL), within statutory limits, for insolvency-related losses.

Protection 04 · Disclosure

Full risk and fee transparency

Every listing publishes a MiFID II KID, SFDR disclosure, full fee schedule and ESG methodology. No hidden spreads, no silent order routing, no inducement payments. What you see is what you pay.
