Digital assets have posed challenges to existing legal and regulatory frameworks. To resolve these challenges, initiatives are taking place at national and international levels that are meant to provide legal certainty for financial transactions involving these types of assets. For instance, work on the substantive law aspects of digital assets is being conducted by UNIDROIT with the objective to develop a future legal instrument containing principles and legislative guidance in the area of private law and digital assets, the Hague Conference on private international law is considering work on the law applicable to digital assets, and the Financial Stability Board published a proposed framework for the international regulation of crypto-asset activities with the main goal to promote the consistency and comprehensiveness of regulatory, supervisory and oversight approaches to crypto-asset activities and strengthen international cooperation and coordination. This session intends to provide an overview on the current state of these projects.
