EBA Regular Use
Preamble
(1) The European Banking Authority (“EBA”) is a European Supervisory Authority established by Regulation (EU) No 1093/20101 . (2) Regulation (EU) 2023/1114 on markets in crypto-assets2 (the “Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation” or “MiCA”) establishes a comprehensive regulatory and supervisory framework for crypto-assets within the European Union (“EU”), including stablecoins termed as asset-referenced tokens (“ARTs”) and electronic money tokens (“EMTs”). (3) MiCA confers on the EBA supervisory responsibilities and tasks over issuers of ARTs and EMTs that are classified as significant, where they meet specific criteria set out in MiCA. (4) In order to carry out such supervisory responsibilities under Article 117 of MiCA, Article 126 of MiCA allows the EBA to conclude administrative agreements on the exchange of information with the supervisory authorities of third countries. (5) The New York State Department of Financial Services (“NYDFS”) supervises and regulates the activities of banking and other financial institutions with the goal of ensuring that the regulation of financial services in New York State keeps pace with the rapid and dynamic evolution of these industries, to guard against financial crises, and to protect consumers and markets from fraud. (6) NYDFS is the Authority in New York State responsible for regulating and supervising virtual currency and virtual currency business activities. Stablecoins are, under NYDFS’s regulatory regime, a form of virtual currency. Entities engaged in virtual currency business activities are regulated and supervised pursuant to the New York Financial Services Law3 (the “Financial Services Law”), the New York Banking Law4 (the “Banking Law”), NYDFS’s BitLicense regulation (23 NYCRR Part 200), and other regulations and guidance. (7) Effective cooperation relies on the possibility to share information freely and safely among the Authorities, and this is facilitated by robust provisions on professional secrecy and data protection. The confidentiality and professional secrecy regimes applicable to the NYDFS have been assessed by the EBA to be equivalent to those set out in MiCA. (8) The Authorities intend to ensure an effective level of cooperation and exchange of information for the performance of their supervisory tasks under their respective legal frameworks and for this purpose have decided to enter into this Memorandum of Understanding (“MoU”). 1 Regulation (EU) No 1093/2010 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 24 November 2010 establishing a European Supervisory Authority (European Banking Authority), amending Decision No 716/2009/EC and repealing Commission Decision 2009/78/EC (OJ L 331 of 15.12.2010, p.12). 2 Regulation (EU) No 2023/1114 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 31 May 2023 on markets in crypto-assets, and amending Regulations (EU) No 1093/2010 and (EEU) No 1095/2010 and Directives 2013/36/EU and (EU) 2019/1937 (OJ L 150 of 09.06.2023, p.1). 3 Chapter 18-A of the
