The U.K. introduced regulation that enables the Financial Conduct Authority and the Bank of England to oversee a digital securities sandbox for testing tokenized securities and distributed ledger technology. 
Effective Jan. 8, this initiative allows the Financial Conduct Authority (<a href="https://crypto.news/tag/fca/" data-type="link" data-id="https://crypto.news/tag/fca/">FCA</a>) and the Bank of England to oversee a controlled testing environment for <a href="https://crypto.news/tag/securities/" data-type="link" data-id="https://crypto.news/tag/securities/">tokenized securities</a>.

Firms participating in the DSS will be subject to tailored regulations if existing ones impede progress, as outlined in the accompanying <a href="https://www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/2023/1398/pdfs/uksiem_20231398_en_001.pdf" data-type="link" data-id="https://www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/2023/1398/pdfs/uksiem_20231398_en_001.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">legal documentation</a>.
