UK regulator considers bespoke rules for tokenised gold
The UK's Financial Conduct Authority is considering exempting tokenised gold from some fund regulations under a bespoke regime, the Financial Times reported. The proposal is intended to make more of London's bullion reserves usable as collateral in transactions. The RSS material does not specify eligibility rules, custody standards, investor protections or the consultation timetable.
Why it matters
A tailored regime could connect traditional bullion markets more closely with tokenised financial infrastructure.
