From global standards to cryptoasset regulations, and how to navigate them

Financial authorities from across the globe are stepping up their efforts to regulate cryptoassets and related activities. Despite recommendations from global standard-setting bodies, the regulatory landscape remains fragmented, particularly between advanced and emerging market economies.

Against this backdrop, the Centre for Alternative Finance of the Cambridge Judge Business School (CCAF) will present latest research showcasing lessons learned from the implementation of cryptoasset regulation in 19 leading jurisdictions. The report compares licensing frameworks for cryptoasset service providers and stablecoin issuers and discusses issues such as cross-border challenges posed by cryptoasset markets and the early regulatory responses to tokenization and DeFi.

CCAF will also be launching the Global Regulatory Innovation Dashboard (GRID) for cryptoasset regulation which categorises, maps and visualises cryptoasset regulatory frameworks and is the first to cover all jurisdictions in the world. 

This talk offers policymakers, regulators, business leaders, regulatory risk and compliance professionals the opportunity to share their views on the challenges and obstacles to implementation of global standards.

The research is supported by the UK Foreign Commonwealth and Development Offices (FCDO) and the Switzerland State Secretariat for Economic Affairs (SECO).
