UK Crypto Regulation Moves Forward: New Cryptoasset Regulated Activities — The FCA Gateway

HM Treasury published the statutory instrument ‘the Financial Services and Markets Act (Cryptoassets) Regulations 2026’ (SI. 2026 No 102) (FSMA (Cryptoassets))’. This instrument will amend the Financial Services and Markets Act (FSMA) and bring cryptoassets within the regulatory perimeter. Whilst the regulations will not go into effect until 25 October 2027, the FSMA (Cryptoassets) marks a key legislative shift. It will subject cryptoasset firms to similar standards as traditional financial institutions, meaning that firms will now be required to seek authorisation from the FCA if they engage in the new cryptoasset regulated activities.
