HSBC Global Viewpoint

The European Union’s proposed Markets in Cryptoassets Regulation (MiCA) aims to regulate many types of cryptoassets not already within MiFID, harmonising regulatory treatment, mitigating risks, and making the EU an attractive place for cryptoasset business to locate in. Cryptoasset service providers and cryptoasset issuers are within the proposed scope. Henry Raschen, Director, Regulatory Outlook at HSBC’s Securities Services and Claire Harrop, Senior Associate in the Financial Institutions Group at Freshfields, discuss MiCA’s content, progress and implications for financial firms now.

The transition period for the UK leaving the European Union (“Brexit”) ended on 31 December 2020. In the months before the transition period ended, the UK converted into law any existing EU regulations that had direct effect in the UK at the end of the transition period. During this “onshoring” process the UK in some cases made technical and other amendments to the legislation so that it would work in the UK after Brexit. EU Directives applying before 31 December 2020 already formed part of UK law, so did not need UK onshoring.
