ESMA assesses DLT's potential and interactions with EU rules
February 7, 2017--The European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) has issued today a report on Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT).
The report sets out ESMA's view on DLT, its possible applications, benefits, risks and how it maps to existing EU regulation. ESMA's position is that regulatory action is premature at this stage, considering that the technology is still at an early stage.
