IOSCO Standards are international guidelines for regulating securities markets globally. These are internationally recognized principles and recommendations developed by the International Organization of Securities Commissions, a global body for securities regulators. Their purpose is to promote investor protection, ensure fair and transparent markets, and mitigate systemic risks across financial systems. These standards provide a framework for national regulators to apply consistent oversight to capital markets.
Context
IOSCO is actively extending its regulatory principles to digital assets that qualify as securities, aiming to ensure consistent investor protection and market integrity across jurisdictions. A key discussion involves applying traditional securities regulations to novel crypto products and platforms, addressing issues like disclosure, market manipulation, and custody. Future efforts will focus on harmonizing global approaches to crypto securities and preventing regulatory arbitrage.
Global regulators must urgently close compliance gaps in CDA frameworks, particularly concerning cross-border cooperation and emerging business models.
