In our EMEA regulatory insights series colleagues from our EMEA offices provide an update on some of the key regulatory issues they are seeing in their local market.
In this latest episode Sebastien Praicheux from our Paris office discusses:
• A recent speech delivered by Denis Beau, First Deputy Governor of the Banque de France, during the June 2025 General Assembly of the French Banking Association. In this keynote, Mr. Beau outlines the reforms France wishes to see at the EU level - advocating not for deregulation, but for better regulation.
• The European Banking Authority’s No Action Letter, which clarifies the interaction between the Payment Services Directive 2 and the Regulation on markets in cryptoassets, in particular regarding electronic money tokens.
• The European Central Bank’s Decision (EU) 2025/1148, which amends the rules governing access by non-bank payment service providers to Eurosystem payment infrastructures and accounts.
