UK Softens Regulations for Digital Asset Firms

🇬🇧 UK Softens Regulations for Digital Asset Firms

FCA proposes lifting some regulatory requirements, opening new opportunities for businesses

The UK’s financial regulator, the FCA, plans to ease several key requirements for companies operating in the field of digital assets. In particular, it proposes temporarily removing the obligation to act with integrity, prioritize client interests, and provide individual advice.

The regulator acknowledges that traditional standards do not always align with the realities of tech-driven projects, especially those involving new financial instruments. At the same time, it plans to strengthen requirements in the areas of cybersecurity, risk management, and operational resilience.

This approach could make London one of the most open financial hubs for Web3 and fintech businesses. The UK is taking a pragmatic stance: not to block innovation, but to create conditions for responsible growth.

🌍 What does this mean for the global market?

Amid tightening regulations in the EU and the US, the UK aims to position itself as a flexible yet well-regulated jurisdiction. Companies seeking a more adaptive environment for development are already exploring the UK market.

All of this creates new opportunities — and at the same time, challenges related to business legalization, regulatory compliance, and access to banking infrastructure.
