Subscribe to our newsletter

The US and UK Governments have issued a joint statement establishing shared regulatory principles for stablecoins and tokenized assets, aiming to align frameworks for cross-border access while retaining individual legal requirements.

According to the Transatlantic Taskforce for Markets of the Future, the guidelines advocate for 1:1 backing of stablecoins with high-quality liquid assets, timely redemption rights, and enhanced protection for holders’ claims on reserves.

The alignment also extends to testing cross-border use cases for tokenised assets and developing common approaches to tokenised securities settlement and collateral usage.
