Updates to the Markets in Crypto-Assets Rulebook and Chapter 3 of the Financial Institutions Rulebook

The Malta Financial Services Authority issued an updated Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) Rulebook and amendments to Chapter 3 of the Financial Institutions Rulebook (FIR/03), which are immediately applicable upon publication. The MiCA Rulebook updates align specific rules with ESMA Guidelines on crypto-asset qualification, management body suitability, security access protocols, and market abuse prevention, while clarifying notification processes for limited network exemptions. FIR/03 amendments add a rule to clarify the submission process for issuers of e-money tokens wishing to notify under MiCA Article 60(4). These changes apply to entities within the scope of the Markets in Crypto-Assets Act and issuers of e-money tokens.
