The paper deals with the use of the blockchain technology in the capital markets from a comparative legal angle. Both the Swiss and the EU legal systems have been analysed with a special focus on banking, securities and AML law. The paper goes beyond a simple analysis of the use of Bitcoin and other virtual currencies, in order to highlight the emergence of proprietary forms of blockchain in the capital markets. Such proprietary forms of blockchain raise numerous questions in terms of governance and access for market players. A section is dedicated to initial coin offerings and their regulatory treatment, scrutinizing to what extent coins qualify as securities in their different forms under Swiss (Bucheffekten and Wertrechte) and EU law. The different position papers by the European authorities (EBA, ECB) as well as the legislative debate have been also taken into consideration. The paper has been submitted as a Master Thesis on April 8th 2018 to the Faculty of Law of the University of Zurich (Professor Rolf Sethe) and been discussed at the joint seminar of the Luxembourg/Bonn/Zurich University on 25 -26 April 2018. The author works as in-house counsel at UBS in Zurich. The paper takes into consideration literature and case law published until March 31 2018.

In the last decades, digitalization has been enormously pushing innovation with a stunning impact on economy and society. In this book, the author illustrates that blockchain is one strong driver of the future digital economy, enabling a higher level of efficiency, trust, and legal security. As regulation can decide how a jurisdiction can participate in this development, the author discusses the current and future regulatory challenges and explains, why applying financial market laws for all Token Economy is not appropriate and would hinder its development. Consequently, he argues for a new regulatory fundament for Token Economy - as the Principality of Liechtenstein has introduced in 2020 - and explains the political regulatory decisions of the so-called »Blockchain-Act«. The author pleads also in favour of establishing a new regulatory framework for Token Financial Markets and drafts its cornerstones. In addition to that, he describes the need for an innovation process for the legal framework and emphasizes the importance of the innovation culture of governments and authorities to keep pace with the technological developments and ensure future prosperity.

Distributed ledger technologies (DLTs) have the potential to revolutionise securities trading and the capital market through removing reconciliation and other costs that are no longer needed with the trust and transparency that DLT brings. DLTs have been used to create virtual currencies (crypto-currencies), such as Bitcoin and Ether, and to create an alternative financial services system. DLTs are an innovation that can facilitate peer-to-peer trading, bringing about the democratisation of financial services markets. This promise is based on the assumption that the functionality of DLTs will result in two changes: decentralisation and disintermediation. To this end, the author investigates how DLT can be applied to the entire life cycle of securities trading - listing (issuing), trading, clearing, and settlement - currently operated by financial market infrastructure (FMI) providers. This paper attempts to answer the following questions: will DLT bring about the benefits it promises? Will decentralisation increase market risks? Will disintermediation create more obstacles to securities trading? In particular, this paper will assess securities trading on DLT networks against systemic risk, market conduct risk, and operational risk to the capital market and consider the appropriate regulations to enhance market integrity, operational safety and investor protection.

This note explores the interactions between new technologies with key areas of commercial law and potential legal changes to respond to new developments in technology and businesses. Inspired by the Bali Fintech Agenda, this note argues that country authorities need to closely examine the adequacy of their legal frameworks to accommodate the use of new technologies and implement necessary legal reform so as to reap the benefits of fintech while mitigating risks. Given the cross-border nature of new technologies, international cooperation among all relevant stakeholders is critical. The note is structured as follows: Section II describes the relations between technology, business, and law, Section III discusses the nature and functions of commercial law; Section IV provides a brief overview of developments in fintech; Section V examines the interaction between technology and commercial law; and Section VI concludes with a preliminary agenda for legal reform to accommodate the use of new technologies.
