The Financial Services Authority published a discussion paper 'Regulation of cryptoasset activities', which seeks views on the potential expansion of the regulatory framework for financial services to include the regulation of certain activities relating to cryptoassets.
In particular, views are being sought on the current approach to the oversight of certain cryptoasset activities for anti-money laundering and countering the financing of terrorism purposes, potential approaches to the regulation of such activities, and how the cost of such regulation should be funded.
Deadline for comments is 9 April 2024.
