IOSCO FinTech Task Force Panel: Addressing market integrity and investor protection risks in crypto and digital assets as well as DeFi

Since its inception last year, the IOSCO FinTech Task Force’s (FTF) priority has been to respond to the urgent need to address risks in the area of market integrity and investor protection in crypto-asset and digital asset (CDA) markets, including Decentralised Finance (DeFi). This year, IOSCO consulted on policy recommendations for CDA markets and DeFi and is on track to finalise its policy recommendations by the end of the year.
 
This panel will discuss the risks arising from CDA markets and DeFi, the FTF’s key policy recommendations to address these risks, as well as the path ahead to ensure widespread adoption of these standards. This panel will also preview the future workplan of the FTF.
