Singapore's regulatory plan collaborates with Japan, Switzerland, and the United Kingdom to advance cryptocurrency pilot projects.
BlockBeats reported on October 30th that the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) announced on its official website that it plans to collaborate with policy makers from Japan, Switzerland, and the United Kingdom to promote responsible innovation in digital assets. The agency is specifically seeking to conduct such pilots in fixed income, foreign exchange, and asset management products.
The group's goal is to initiate policy and accounting discussions, identify potential risks and legal gaps related to digital asset and tokenization solutions. The project also seeks to explore the development of universal standards for digital asset network design, and to find best practices in various jurisdictions. Other areas of work include interoperability, regulatory sandboxes, and education related to the cryptocurrency industry.
