Goldilocks’ Comments and Global Economic News Sunday Evening 6-2-24
Good evening ,
“This joint proposal from the Bank of England and the Financial Conduct Authority (together, “the UK regulators”) for a digital securities sandbox (“DSS”) reflects a commendable commitment to incorporating innovation into the financial system.”
A letter was sent to the Digital Securities Sandbox joint Bank of England and Financial Conduct Authority regarding this consultation paper.
If all goes well in this pilot phase / sandbox movement forward, all would commence so long as the United States doesn’t have anything further to add from the new Markets in Crypto Assets (MICA) regulations.
This consultation paper will be added to the current work taking place on legislation in Washington. See Rep. McHenry, Patrick T, H.R. 7440 – Financial Services Innovation Act of 2024, US Congress (Feb. 23, 2024).
The purpose of this consultation letter is to make it clear the intended role of the new Digital Financial/Payment System will take going forward.
The following is the stated purpose: “A sandbox is designed to generate real-world insights about whether distributed ledger technology (“DLT”) could streamline the issuance, trading, and settlement of securities without undermining investor protection, market integrity, or financial stability.”
These new regulations under the authority of the FCA has the potential to change the way settlement processes are being done, and this concerted effort is to affirm coordinated actions inside of a sandbox to make sure the US and UK can coordinate and implement a final phase by the end of June when it becomes law.
