UK lifts ban on retail crypto ETPs, but listing may be delayed until mid-October
-
最新报道：According to Bijie.com and ME, on October 4 (UTC+8), the UK Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) lifted its ban on retail investors purchasing crypto exchange-traded products (ETPs) effective October 2. However, because the FCA did not begin accepting prospectuses until September 25, just two weeks before the expected launch date, the FCA will need several days to review each document and may request additional comments, potentially delaying the listing until at least October 13. After approval, the listing still requires the approval of the London Stock Exchange. The delay stems in part from discussions between the FCA and the LSE regarding whether retail products require a separate trading section. Meanwhile, the FCA has accelerated its approval process, with the registration approval rate rising to 45% over the past two years, despite a 43% decrease in applications. This marks the first time UK retail investors have had access to regulated crypto products since the FCA banned crypto derivatives and ETPs in 2021, citing volatility and fraud risks. In addition, the UK and the US announced the establishment of the "Transatlantic Future Markets Working Group" to promote the interoperability of digital asset regulatory frameworks; the Bank of England proposed to impose strict holding limits on systemic stablecoins, which aroused industry concerns.
