Oversight Gaps

Definition

Oversight gaps refer to areas within a regulatory or operational framework where there is an absence or inadequacy of supervision, control, or enforcement. In the digital asset sector, these gaps often arise due to the rapid pace of technological innovation, the borderless nature of cryptocurrencies, or inconsistencies in existing legal definitions. Such deficiencies can create opportunities for illicit activities, market manipulation, or consumer harm. Addressing oversight gaps is a priority for global financial stability.
