The Bank for International Settlements (BIS) has published a new report analyzing the regulatory landscape for stablecoins in seven jurisdictions. The Stablecoins: Regulatory Responses to Their Promise of Stability report highlights the growing role of stablecoins in the financial sector and their potential to match fiat currencies’ values. It also addresses the complexities of maintaining stable values as well as the global efforts of regulatory bodies to manage risks associated with stablecoins, particularly those linked to a single fiat currency. The report’s analysis includes a detailed comparison of regulatory frameworks, focusing on issues such as licensing, asset management, consumer protection and compliance with anti-money laundering and counter-terrorism financing standards. It concludes by advocating for greater international cooperation to avoid regulatory discrepancies and emphasizes the importance of a unified approach to integrating stablecoins with other digital currencies to promote a cohesive global financial system.
