Addressing the Global Challenge of Responsive FinTech Regulation
Friday, 8 March 2019, 9am – 6pm 
A symposium organised by the Corporate Law, Governance and Capital Markets Group in the School of Law.
The symposium will examine the regulatory challenges posed by financial technology. Cryptocurrencies, blockchain technology, smart contracts, robo-advisors, initial coin offerings are challenging incumbent practices and firms. The evolving field of fintech gives rise to new investor protection and financial stability risks. Regulators around the world are seeking to devise an optimal regulatory response, which addresses the challenges posed by fintech without stifling innovation. The symposium will seek to assess the benefits offered by financial technology, the dangers posed and the optimal regulatory approach.
