The International Monetary Fund (IMF) has recognized the rise of stablecoins and acknowledges that leading regulators view them as legitimate and beneficial.

The International Monetary Fund (IMF) has recognized the rise of stablecoins and has offered guidance to member countries regarding critical aspects of an appropriate policy response to crypto assets. While major regulators see stablecoins as legitimate and beneficial, the IMF acknowledges that these digital currencies could pose systematic risks to the economy. Consequently, the IMF has outlined specific guidelines for regulating stablecoins rather than broad principles.

The framework is structured around nine components designed to assist members in developing a thorough, coherent, and unified policy response. These components encompass protecting monetary sovereignty and stability, mitigating excessive capital flow volatility, ensuring legal clarity, creating and enforcing prudential, conduct, and oversight regulations, establishing a collaborative monitoring framework, enhancing supervisory and enforcement cooperation on an international scale, assessing the influence of crypto assets on the international monetary system’s stability, and improving global collaboration to build digital infrastructures and alternative solutions for cross-border payments and finance.

The Executive Board of the IMF has reviewed the board paper on Elements of Effective Policies for Crypto Assets. Directors concurred that while the potential advantages of crypto assets have yet to be realized, notable risks have surfaced. These risks include macroeconomic uncertainties, which involve threats to the effectiveness of monetary policies, volatility in capital flows, and fiscal challenges. They also expressed significant concerns about financial stability, financial integrity, legal risks, consumer protection, and market integrity. In light of this, Directors largely welcomed the proposed framework and its components.

Directors acknowledged that crypto assets present implications for policies central to the Fund’s mandate. Specifically, the widespread adoption of crypto assets could compromise the effectiveness of monetary policy, bypass capital flow management strategies, and intensify fiscal risks. The broad adoption of these assets could also have lasting repercussions for the international monetary system. Therefore, Directors stressed that strong macroeconomic policies, which include credible institutions and monetary frameworks, are crucial, and that Fund guidance in these domains will continue to be vital.

The IMF recognizes that formulating effective policies for crypto assets has become a key priority for authorities, as the landscape for these assets may continue to develop despite current declines. The paper offers a comprehensive framework for policymakers to better address the risks posed by crypto assets while also leveraging the technological advancements associated with them. Directors highlighted the necessity of prioritizing elements of the framework where countries encounter implementation challenges, particularly with weak regulatory authorities. They emphasized that the pace and sequence of execution should be adapted to each country’s unique situation. It is essential to support regulatory approaches with clear and sound private and public legal frameworks. Robust coordination among authorities, both domestically and internationally, is vital for consistent application and to prevent regulatory arbitrage. Directors also underscored the significance of upholding the principle of “same activity, same risk, same regulation.”
