Membership
Membership opens in our second year.
We are not selling membership before there is something to be a member of. Membership opens once there is a body of published work and an established programme rhythm that makes a recurring fee defensible.
Categories
Five categories, stated fees.
| Category | Who | Fee |
|---|---|---|
| Institutional Member | Banks, large financial institutions, major digital-asset firms, corporates | Paid, banded by size |
| Corporate Member | Small and mid-sized firms, fintechs, startups | Paid, lower band, with a startup rate |
| Regulatory Observer | Public authorities | Free, permanently |
| Academic Member | Universities and research institutions | Free or nominal |
| Professional Member | Individual lawyers, compliance officers, analysts, risk professionals | Paid, free for life to Fellowship alumni |
Why regulators never pay
Four reasons, stated publicly because they matter.
Many public authorities cannot pay third-party fees without a procurement process that would delay or prevent participation. A fee-paying regulator can be characterised as a client, which damages both of us. Supporting supervisory capability is part of our purpose, and charging for it inverts the mission. And we gain far more from regulatory participation than we could ever charge for it.
Membership confers access, not influence.
Members receive no editorial rights, no research direction and no advance sight of anything.
Register your interest now and we will contact you when membership opens, with the category and band that fits your institution.
