Stablecoins in the UK: Building Smart Regulation for a Growing Market

24.09.2025

Stablecoins are one of the fastest-growing areas of digital assets, with transaction volumes already exceeding Visa and Mastercard combined. They have clear potential to bring efficiency, resilience and innovation to the financial system – but only if regulation strikes the right balance.

As the UK seeks to establish itself as a leader in digital assets, current regulatory proposals for stablecoins may risk undermining innovation, liquidity and market stability. Universal on-demand redemption, disproportionate prudential requirements and overlapping FCA/Bank of England regimes could make issuance of stablecoins in the UK difficult, pushing business offshore while delivering little in terms of consumer protection.

Join us for this webinar, where we will unpack the UK’s proposed framework, explore lessons from the EU’s MiCA regime and discuss how the stablecoin market actually works in practice. We’ll outline potentially more effective, market-consistent approaches and show how the UK can balance resilience with growth, ensuring stablecoins serve both users and the UK economy more broadly.
