🇬🇧 The UK government has announced a further set of features that aim to be tested as part of the Digital Gilt pilot launched earlier this year: ➡️ Delivering on-chain settlement. In line with the objective to test the full lifecycle of the UK sovereign debt issuance process, the government will prioritise solutions that allow DIGIT to be settled on DLT. This includes the cash leg of DIGIT transactions. ➡️ Enabling settlement of over-the-counter trades. The ability to trade DIGIT between counterparties on a DLT platform is important for establishing an active market. This includes testing functionality of DLT compared to standard fixed income markets, such as the role smart contracts can play in over-the-counter trades. ➡️ Supporting interoperability. Responses highlighted that a key barrier to adoption of DLT is that it could lead to a fragmented market. The government will look to work with industry, platform providers and existing market infrastructure providers to foster interoperability in supporting access to DIGIT from investors operating in both traditional and DLT markets. ➡️ Deliver greater transparency. DLT platforms have the capability to provide greater visibility of securities ownership and other potential benefits. This is an important area where DLT can go beyond what is possible on existing infrastructure making it important to test how these benefits can be realised. 🏛️ The BBA, having contributed to various public consultations on blockchain and distributed ledger technologies (DLT), is closely monitoring these developments and will continue to liaise with all stakeholders and contribute as necessary. #Digital #Gilt #Blockchain #BBA

🔊 Hot off the press! 🇬🇧 We have submitted our comprehensive response to the Financial Conduct Authority's Consultation Paper ‘CP25/14: STABLECOIN Issuance and Cryptoasset Custody’. 🌐 Grounded in #industry research, #member surveys, and #scientific data, our evidence-driven submission addresses key #regulatory challenges and presents strategic recommendations to help shape a world-leading framework for Stablecoin and crypto custody that protects consumers, drives #innovation, and cements the #UK’s leadership in Digital Assets. 🔎 Key highlights from our response: 📍 Auditing Standards for Stablecoins: FCA-approved training for auditors reviewing tokenomics disclosures. 📍 Clarity and definitions of key terms (e.g. “unconnected custodians”, “material discrepancy”). 📍 Standards for Multi-Currency Stablecoins: Support for aligned standards with single-currency issuers, with targeted deviations for forex risks, including hedging and stress-testing. 📍 The use of omnibus wallets and DLT-based reconciliations, with appropriate guidance. 📍 Consumer Protection Beyond Duty: Consumer Duty alone is insufficient; additional requirements like statutory trusts and backing asset safeguards are essential to mitigate risks such as redemption failures and volatility. 📍 Backing Assets & Liquidity: Endorsement of high-quality asset compositions, dynamic redemption risk management alternatives (e.g., algorithmic buffers), and phased implementation for smaller issuers. 📍 Custody Safeguards: Emphasis on segregation, robust key management, record-keeping, and proportional rules to balance security with market access for smaller custodians. 📍 Cost-Benefit Analysis Views: While benefits like reduced losses are noted, we recommend sensitivity analysis, subsidies for compliance, and ongoing monitoring to avoid barriers for new entrants. 📍 Recommends allowance for operational exemptions (e.g. de minimis issuer-held coins). 🤝 We extend our sincere thanks to BBA members, editors, advisors, and partners for their invaluable insights and contributions to this consultation response. ➡️ Read the full submission here: 📄.pdf 🏛️ Established in 2017, The BBA works in close collaboration with regulators, policymakers, academics, industry leaders, and members of the public to advance evidence-led adoption of #Blockchain and #Cryptoasset technologies.
