Beskrivelse
This incisive book examines the extent to which existing UK financial service regulations can be applied to digital assets and decentralised financial services provided by distributed networks. Brendan McGurk and Stefan Reichenbach consider the wider legal issues beyond regulatory enforcement, attributable to the use of distributed ledger technology based financial services.
Key Features:
Comprehensive examination of the nature and application of distributed ledgers in the context of financial services
Analyses the proprietary nature of cryptoassets and their amenability to financial services regulation as a form of property
Detailed consideration of the extent to which existing financial services law governs cryptoassets and forms of decentralised finance
Sector specific analysis of the use of digital assets as securities, within the distributed payment systems, and in supporting lending and insurance services
Consideration of the complexities in identifying the appropriate jurisdiction and applicable laws governing crypto disputes
In-depth exploration of the remedies and dispute resolution methods available to holders of digital assets
