  • FSB thematic peer review on global regulatory framework for cryptoasset activities

    21 February 2025
    The Financial Stability Board (FSB) has published summary terms of reference for its thematic peer review on the FSB global regulatory framework for cryptoasset activities. The objective of this peer review is to examine members' progress, experience and lessons learned in implementing the FSB global regulatory framework for cryptoasset activities. This includes the high-level recommendations for the regulation, supervision and oversight of both cryptoasset markets and activities, and global stablecoin arrangements. It will focus particularly on the: (i) regulatory frameworks and implementation status; (ii) data reporting; (iii) cross-border cooperation; and (iv) stablecoins. The FSB expects to publish the peer review report in October.

    The FSB is seeking feedback from stakeholders as part of its thematic peer review and a questionnaire has been distributed to relevant jurisdictions to collect information. The FSB invites feedback on issues such as: (a) the impact of jurisdictional regulatory frameworks on decisions of cryptoasset issuers and service providers; (b) experiences and challenges faced by cryptoasset market participants in meeting the relevant regulatory and supervisory requirements; (c) how financial stability vulnerabilities of cryptoasset activities differ across jurisdictions; and (d) whether there are specific market practices and/or trends in certain geographies and/or segments that may pose a threat to financial stability.

    Feedback should be submitted by 28 March.
