With market developments in AI moving at a rapid pace, the framework aims to bring clarity and coherence to the underpinning regulatory landscape in the interests of facilitating responsible innovation. Instead of creating a new single regulator for AI, the UK will empower existing regulators to embed five key principles when approaching AI in their respective sector. These five principles are: i) safety, security and robustness, ii) transparency and explainability, iii) fairness, iv) accountability and governance, and v) contestability and redress. Regulators intend to issue practical guidance to set out how to implement these principles in their sectors over the next 12 months.

Under the new legislation virtual asset platform operators are subject to a range of requirements such as operational resiliency, transparency, and supervisory cooperation.

In particular, the bill would place the Federal Reserve in charge of non-bank stablecoins, enact a temporary ban on new stablecoins that are not backed by a hard asset, and allow federal banking regulators and the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) to set interoperability standards between stablecoins. The bill also directs the Federal Reserve to study certain implications of a digital dollar on monetary policy and financial stability. It remains to be seen whether the bill is passed into law.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n<\/div><div\n    class=\"bbg-column bbg-column--width-2\"\n    style=\"\"\n    >\n    \n<\/div>\n\n\n                    <\/div>\n    <\/section>\n<\/div>\n\n<div  class=\"bbg-row-container\">\n    <section class=\"bbg-row  text--black row-padding--top-none bbg-row--full-bg-bleed\" data-anchor='row-69fe50184a147'>\n        \n        \n        <div\n            class=\"bbg-row--content\"\n                    >\n            \n            <p><div\n    class=\"bbg-column bbg-column--width-2\"\n    style=\"\"\n    >\n    \n<\/div><div\n    class=\"bbg-column bbg-column--width-8\"\n    style=\"\"\n    >\n    <div\n\tclass=\"bb-wysiwyg\"\n\t\t>\n\t<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hong Kong High Court rules cryptoassets are property in landmark case<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hong Kong\u2019s High Court has <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.engage.hoganlovells.com\/knowledgeservices\/news\/a-whole-new-world-hong-kong-court-declares-crypto-assets-are-property-and-can-be-held-on-trust\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ruled<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> in a case involving now-shuttered Hong Kong based exchange, Gatecoin, that cryptocurrency assets are property that can be held in a trust.
