The UK Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) has launched a call for input on the opportunities and risks of tokenised gold in wholesale markets.

The FCA is examining whether tokenisation could improve the trading, transfer, pledging and use of gold as collateral, and whether certain tokenised gold products should be exempt from existing fund rules.

The consultation is open until 23 October.

The U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) has submitted a proposed framework for regulating crypto transactions and markets to the White House for review.

The move follows the failure of the CLARITY Act to advance in the U.S. Senate. The proposal aims to provide a regulatory pathway for crypto asset market participants under the agency’s existing authorities. It will remain subject to further review, public consultation and approval before any final rules take effect.

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has granted qualifying blockchain-based trading venues a five-year conditional exemption from certain securities-market requirements, enabling them to facilitate the trading of eligible tokenized U.S. stocks, subject to specified conditions.

According to the SEC’s Innovation Exemption announcement, the exemption applies to qualifying Tokenized Securities Venues (TSVs) handling certain National Market System (NMS) stocks.

The order provides an exemption from certain requirements applicable to exchanges and dealers under the Securities Exchange Act and permits participating venues to utilise permissioned automated market makers and liquidity pools.

The exemption is subject to specified conditions and is intended to facilitate the operation of eligible blockchain-based venues for tokenized securities trading within the existing U.S. securities regulatory framework.

A coalition of European financial and tokenisation groups has urged EU lawmakers to remove the proposed €100 billion cap on tokenised financial instruments under the EU’s DLT Pilot Regime, or increase the threshold to at least €500 billion.

In a letter dated 7 September, addressed to members of the EU Council and the European Parliament’s Economic and Monetary Affairs Committee, the groups argued that the proposed ceiling could constrain the growth of Europe’s tokenised financial markets.

The coalition noted that some existing European projects have already reached a scale of approximately €350 billion, with further expansion planned, making the proposed €100 billion limit potentially inadequate.

The groups also highlighted the contrast with the United States, where tokenisation of equities and other assets is not subject to comparable volume caps.
