Select Committee Inquiry
28 Jan 2026
Growth and proposed regulation of stablecoins in the UK
Financial Services Regulation Committee (Select)

Submit Evidence (by 11 Mar 2026)


This inquiry will examine the development of, and proposed regulatory response to, stablecoins in the UK. In particular, the inquiry will examine the extent to which stablecoins might disrupt the traditional models of provision of financial services, including for banking and payments services. The inquiry will also assess the potential opportunities and risks that the growth of stablecoins might have on UK’s financial services sector, and whether the Bank of England and FCA’s proposed regulatory frameworks provide measured and proportionate responses to these risks.
