UK announces draft rules for crypto industry, US collaboration
SHARE

Britain has taken a significant step towards regulating the cryptocurrency industry by publishing draft legislation aimed at bringing greater collaboration with the United States. The move comes as authorities seek to rein in the volatile world of digital assets.

During a fintech event on Tuesday, U.K. Finance Minister Rachel Reeves outlined plans for a “comprehensive regulatory regime for crypto assets,” with the goal of positioning the country as a global leader in digital assets. The proposed rules will bring crypto exchanges, dealers, and agents under regulatory oversight, cracking down on illicit activities while supporting legitimate innovation.

According to a statement from the U.K. Treasury department, crypto firms serving UK customers will be required to adhere to clear standards on transparency, consumer protection, and operational resilience, mirroring the regulations imposed on traditional financial institutions.

Reeves emphasized the importance of international cooperation in fostering responsible adoption of digital assets, highlighting plans to deepen regulatory collaboration with the U.S. during her address at the Innovate Finance annual summit. She recently met with U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent to discuss a potential trade deal, underscoring the significance of strengthening ties with both the U.S. and the European Union.

The Finance Minister stressed the need for regulations that support businesses without hindering their growth, acknowledging industry concerns about the Financial Conduct Authority’s (FCA) stringent approach to approving registrations for digital asset firms. The FCA, the U.K.’s financial services watchdog, is responsible for registering firms seeking to provide crypto services within the framework of money laundering regulations.

Industry insiders have criticized the FCA for its perceived restrictive stance, calling for a more accommodating regulatory environment to foster innovation and growth in the crypto sector. Reeves echoed these sentiments, emphasizing the importance of striking a balance between regulation and business facilitation in the evolving digital asset landscape.

Overall, the draft legislation signals the U.K.’s commitment to establishing a robust regulatory framework for the cryptocurrency industry, aligning its approach with international standards to promote responsible innovation and safeguard consumer interests. As the regulatory landscape continues to evolve, collaboration with global partners will be crucial in shaping the future of digital assets and ensuring a secure and thriving ecosystem for market participants.
