Joe Salama to Join Coinbase as Chief Compliance Officer

Head of Compliance Caitlin Barnett @chainalysis discusses the evolving compliance landscape and its impact on digital assets with chief compliance officers CJ Rinaldi of @krakenfx, Vanessa Zhang @okx, and Melissa Strait of @coinbase. To innovate responsibly, Zhang said compliance teams must “build on the shared ownership with business, with product… a product review process that allows compliance to have a seat at the table, literally, can be as early as the ideation stage… we’ll be able to bake our controls in there as a native process rather than something we bolt onto it.”
