On June 6, the FSB issued a report that considers potential implications of decentralized financial technologies such as distributed ledgers, online peer-to-peer, or user-matching lending platforms. From a financial stability point of view, they argue that while decentralization could reduce the systemic importance of some current agents, other risks may appear: concentration of ownership; control of key infrastructure; greater degree of procyclicality. The FSB finds that the new technologies likely increase the need for activity-based, as opposed to institution-based, supervision and regulation. |
