 <p>The <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="report" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/report.html">report</a> concludes with timelines for IMF and G20 members to implement the recommendations from the Financial Stability Board and IOSCO, the global securities watchdog that includes organizations like the U.S. SEC, Japan’s Financial Services Agency (FSA), Germany’s BaFin and Britain’s Financial Conduct Authority (FCA).</p>

 <p>After presenting the paper’s contents, the proposed roadmap will be shared with G20 leaders at a summit in New Delhi later this month.</p> 
 <p>The IOSCO guidelines, introduced on May 23 this year, mark the first global attempt to regulate digital markets and crypto-assets. </p> 
 <p>Many of the recommendations were prompted by the FTX collapse from the previous year. </p> 
 <p>Before these guidelines, the industry only had to adhere to anti-money laundering checks, creating confusion as various jurisdictions established their own rules.</p> 
 <p>The aim is for frameworks like the one proposed by IOSCO to combat criminal activity while enabling everyone to enjoy the benefits of cryptocurrency technology.</p>
