2024

The Basel Committee on Banking Supervision has approved a final disclosure framework for banks’ crypto asset exposures, set to be implemented by January 1, 2026. This framework includes standard public tables and templates to improve transparency and support responsible practices in the banking sector. The decision followed a review of feedback on the Committee’s consultation, which began in May 2023 after the initial proposal in December 2022.

The updated standard, like the disclosure framework, will be published later this month, with an implementation deadline also set for January 1, 2026.

Where tokenized deposits and stablecoins are concerned, the Committee warned about the threats that surround such exposures by the banks to the public. While present market conditions may present only manageable risks, the Basel Framework captures these issues and there will be ongoing monitoring. 
Due to the constant changes in third-party service providers, the Basel Committee decided to proceed with the development of the consultative document that sets out fundamental guidelines for the sound management of third-party risk.&nbsp;
