Recommendation of the European Systemic Risk Board on third-country multi-issuer stablecoin schemes

The European Systemic Risk Board recommends that the European Commission interpret MiCAR as not permitting third-country multi-issuer stablecoin schemes due to financial stability risks. If permitted, the Commission must establish an equivalence assessment framework for third-country legal regimes, including prudential and supervisory requirements. The document further recommends amending MiCAR to classify participation in such schemes as a criterion for significant tokens, warranting centralized supervision by the EBA. Additional measures include enhancing international cooperation, ensuring reserve asset mobility, updating prudential guidelines, and improving data transparency and reporting obligations.
