UK explores putting public funds on-chain, aiming to automate share registration
ChainCatcher news, according to a report by Caixin, the UK Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) is seeking public opinion on a proposal to support the asset management and fund industry in embracing "tokenization".
The proposal provides a compliant pathway for registering public fund shares on distributed ledger technology (DLT), aiming to reduce costs and improve efficiency in the asset management industry through blockchain technology. According to the consultation paper, the "blueprint model" proposed by the FCA allows fund managers to migrate the fund share registration system to blockchain without changing the core regulatory framework. The requirements for fund custody, valuation, information disclosure, and investor protection remain unchanged, but the registration of shares can be completed through distributed ledger technology.
