Crypto Assets Pose No Major Risk to EU Financial Stability, Says Regulator
The European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) has stated that crypto assets currently pose no significant risk to financial stability, noting that their market capitalization is just 1% of global financial assets.
ESMA highlighted that crypto assets have limited integration with traditional finance, reducing their potential for disruption. Despite concerns about crypto funds and derivatives, ESMA emphasized their small size and low market penetration, especially in critical financial services.
However, as crypto adoption grows, ESMA acknowledged that risks may increase, particularly with stablecoins, which require continued monitoring and a global regulatory framework.
