Executive Panel: Digital Finance and Crypto Assets Oversight – Where Do We Stand?

Crypto regulation was a key agenda of the G20 summit. While regulations and a framework have yet to be finalized, consensus emerged that a blanket ban was not feasible.

The joint declaration noted that the G20 will continue to “closely monitor the risks of the fast-paced developments in the cryptoasset ecosystem,” and the leaders endorsed the Financial Stability Board’s (FSB’s) “high-level recommendations for the regulation, supervision, and oversight of crypto-assets activities and markets and of global stablecoin arrangements.”

The panel discussed:

  • macro financial consequences,
  • regulatory aspects,
  • cross-border framework and cooperation; and
  • supervisory implications.
