About Erez Almog

I began my career in the early 2000s advising high-tech startups as they moved from idea to investment.

I handled pre-seed, Series A and Series B fundraising, negotiated with international venture funds and advised companies preparing for listings on NASDAQ and on Germany's former Neue Markt.

As global investment into Israel expanded, I represented multinational companies from Singapore, the United States, Canada and Europe as they entered the Israeli market. I also advised Israeli exporters and technology companies expanding into Asia, Europe and North America.

My work included:

• M&A and joint ventures
• Licensing and distribution
• Employment and contractor arrangements
• International commercial agreements
• Tax planning and transfer pricing

Over the years, I established companies and operational structures in nearly 20 jurisdictions. These include Panama, Hong Kong, Singapore, the United States, Georgia, Cyprus, Malta, Estonia, Bulgaria, BVI, Seychelles, Vanuatu, Jersey, Curaçao, St. Vincent and others. My work covered governance, compliance, multi-entity structuring and cross-border operational alignment.

Licensing and AML Compliance

I drafted licensing frameworks for operators regulated in Curaçao, Malta, Cyprus (CySEC), Jersey, Seychelles, Vanuatu, BVI, St. Vincent and additional offshore and onshore environments.

This included:

• AML and CTF frameworks
• Operational compliance
• Cross-border payments
• Multi-regulator supervision
• Risk mapping and structural planning

Digital Assets (2019 to today)

I began advising digital-asset businesses in 2019 when regulation was still undefined and inconsistent.

Today, I advise clients operating across Israel, Europe, Asia and the United States, often under the supervision of three or more regulators at the same time.
