Spotlight on Universal Tech Expo 2024 

## The Bahamas: A Leader in Digital Asset Regulation

Hon. Philip Davis, the Prime Minister of the Commonwealth of The Bahamas, delivered a keynote speech at the Consensus Conference 2023 in Austin, Texas. The speech highlighted the country's commitment to leading the world in digital asset regulation and innovation. Davis noted that the traditional financial services products were failing to embrace the freedom and inclusion that the public demands. In embracing digital assets, The Bahamas aims to fill the needs left unmet by traditional finance and democratize financial markets.

Davis stated that The Bahamas is committed to advancing the most current regulatory policies that safeguard and protect investors, customer assets, and industry stakeholders, while enabling legitimate digital asset businesses to innovate and grow in a risk-based environment. He also highlighted that the Securities Commission of The Bahamas has sought industry feedback, internal reviews, and international assessments of the legislative regime, benchmarking the DARE Act with comparable frameworks from jurisdictions such as the European Union, Hong Kong, and New York.

## The DARE Act: A Robust Regulatory Framework

The Digital Assets and Registered Exchanges Act (DARE Act) is the legislative framework that governs digital assets in The Bahamas. Davis noted that the DARE Act enabled The Bahamas to act decisively when FTX, a Bahamian-based entity, collapsed. The Securities Commission quickly put the entity into provisional liquidation, ahead of its filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy and securing FTX assets, which had a market or trading value around $3.5 billion at the time they were secured. The DARE Act is considered the superior regulatory legislation in the industry.

## Proposed Amendments to the DARE Act

The Securities Commission of The Bahamas has opened its one-month public consultation period for a series of amendments to the DARE Act. The amendments address a comprehensive range of digital asset activities and strengthen protection mechanisms for the registration and ongoing supervision of operators. The proposed amendments represent an even greater focus on consumer and investor protection, robust risk management, as well as market development and innovation.

The amendments also include additional requirements for custody and custodial wallet services, more prescriptive segregation of client assets requirements, and an internationally compliant anti-money laundering framework. New areas of digital asset businesses will be addressed by the DARE amendments. Examples include management of digital assets, digital asset derivative services, and distributed ledger technology network node services.

## DARE Amendments for Stablecoins and Digital Autonomous Organizations (DAOs)

The DARE amendments establish a new regulatory framework for stablecoins, providing a clear definition for stablecoins, for the registration of existing stablecoins, specifies acceptable forms of reserve assets, and establishes new requirements for custody and management, segregation, reporting, and redemption of reserve assets.

Davis also announced that the Digital Advisory Panel is collaborating with the Securities Commission of The Bahamas to develop a regulatory framework and corporate structure for Digital Autonomous Organizations (DAOs) to structure and operate with predictability and legal certainty. The Bahamas will roll out this new regulated structure for DAOs in conjunction with the enactment of the DARE amendments.

## D3 Bahamas FinTech and Web 3 Summit

Davis invited industry leaders to join The Bahamas for the D3 Bahamas FinTech and Web 3 Summit this fall. The summit will bring together industry leaders from around the globe to delve into topics that matter most to the entire digital assets industry such as the future of Web3 development, global regulatory advancements, crypto adoption, and sustainable finance powered by blockchain technology.

## Conclusion

The Bahamas is blazing a trail in digital asset regulation and innovation, committed to safeguarding investors, customer assets, and industry stakeholders while enabling legitimate digital asset businesses to grow in a risk-based environment. The proposed amendments to the DARE Act showcase The Bahamas' dedication to staying at the forefront of the digital asset industry, offering investor protections, robust risk management, and market development for digital asset businesses to operate and innovate in The Bahamas.

The Bahamas' efforts to lead the world in digital asset regulation and innovation are further evidenced by proposed amendments for stablecoins and Digital Autonomous Organizations (DAOs), as well as the upcoming D3 Bahamas FinTech and Web 3 Summit, which promises to bring together industry leaders from around the globe to discuss critical topics that impact the digital assets industry.

In summary, The Bahamas is a leader in digital asset regulation and innovation, with a robust regulatory framework that provides a conducive environment for legitimate digital asset businesses to thrive. The country's proactive approach to regulation, coupled with collaborations with industry stakeholders and ongoing evaluations of international regulatory advancements, makes The Bahamas the ideal destination for investors seeking a jurisdiction that prioritizes investor protections and digital asset innovation.
