Huoxun Finance reports that the UK Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) has announced it is issuing guidance and soliciting industry feedback on the future regulatory framework for crypto assets in the UK, aiming to facilitate the implementation of a comprehensive regulatory framework that will take effect on October 25, 2027. This consultation, which will continue until June 3, 2026, aims to help companies understand the impact of the new regulations on their businesses, while providing compliance guidance for key areas such as stablecoin issuance, crypto trading, custody, and staking. The FCA stated its goal is to create a "competitive and sustainable" crypto market, enabling compliant institutions to better serve UK users. The FCA also disclosed that the application channel for relevant crypto company authorizations is expected to open in September 2026 and continue until February 2027. All institutions providing crypto asset services will be required to complete authorization under the Financial Services and Markets Act (FSMA) in the future, even if they have previously registered under the anti-money laundering framework. This guidance consultation is seen as an important step in the UK's gradual improvement of its crypto regulatory system, marking an accelerated transition from partial regulation to a comprehensive licensing system.
