EU Crypto Regulation Takes Effect
Since July 2, every firm offering crypto-asset services in the EU needs MiCA authorisation, with no equivalence route for third countries. 283 providers hold that licence across the bloc, with France ranking second, having 31 authorised locally. Marianne J., Deputy Head of Innovation & Digital Finance at the Autorité des marchés financiers (AMF) in France, has been involved in the framework since 2022. She also contributes to preparing new frameworks for open finance and artificial intelligence. She will be attending DAF New York on November 13.
