FCA-Cryptocurrency derivatives- FCA statement on the requirement for firms offering cryptocurrency derivatives to be authorised
April 6, 2018--We are aware of a growing number of UK firms offering so-called cryptocurrencies and cryptocurrenc-related assets. As indicated in our Feedback Statement on DLT, cryptocurrencies are not currently regulated by the FCA provided they are not part of other regulated products or services.
Cryptocurrency derivatives are, however, capable of being financial instruments under the Markets in Financial Instruments Directive II (MIFID II), although we do not consider cryptocurrencies to be currencies or commodities for regulatory purposes under MiFID II. Firms conducting regulated activities in cryptocurrency derivatives must, therefore, comply with all applicable rules in the FCA's Handbook and any relevant provisions in directly applicable European Union regulations.
