Details
The document notes the need to adopt a draft law amending the legislation on virtual assets and payment systems of Ukraine. This draft law should meet the standards set by the MiCA regulator.
Further reforms are needed to improve Ukraine's compliance with the Financial Action Task Force on Money Laundering (FATF) standards, in particular in the area of virtual assets, targeted financial sanctions and investigations... The emergence of virtual assets and the lack of their legal regulation is a negative factor that can facilitate fraud, money laundering, terrorist financing and tax evasion
The document also states that Ukraine should work to regulate crypto assets and ensure the stability of the digital financial sector in accordance with the best European standards and practices.
