We’re pleased to share “The Smart Contract Primer: An Initial Overview of Smart Contract Implementation within Financial Services & Regulatory Solutions for Risk Management,” produced in partnership with GFMA, Global Digital Finance, and Hogan Lovells.

In partnership with GFMA, Global Digital Finance is delighted to publish "The Smart Contract Primer: An Initial Overview of Smart Contract Implementation within Financial Services & Regulatory Solutions for Risk Management". 📑 The Primer provides an initial overview of what smart contracts are, how they are being implemented within financial services and proposes how to apply existing legal and regulatory frameworks to mitigate risks from utilizing such technology. 📑 It represents the broad perspectives of industry practitioners who are pioneering both research as well as the real-world implementation of distributed ledger technology (DLT) and smart contracts within business models across the globe. 📑 The Primer highlights how the standards of existing regulatory frameworks, regulatory requirements, and oversight – together with specific application of smart contract mitigants recommended s in this Primer – can be applied to manage smart contract risk. Together, these help to eliminate the need for special regimes to regulate smart contracts and/or duplicative or disproportionate requirements applicable to smart contracts. We would like to thank all GDF and GFMA members, and in particular Hogan Lovells and Steptoe LLP for contributing their time, efforts and Legal Expertise to this timely piece of work.
