RCA Global Regulatory Map — Q3 2026

1 Sept 2026

A desk map of EU, UK, US, Singapore, Dubai (VARA/ADGM/DIFC), Switzerland, Hong Kong, Japan and Australia — with source dates and an explicit distinction between consultation and in-force law.

Institutional policy monitor: perimeter, register and commencement status by jurisdiction.

Highlights

EU: in-force statute plus live Article 109 register.
UK: MLR + promotions in force; FSMA activities still design-stage in RCA's file.
US: dual federal perimeter plus state trust and money-transmission overlays.
Dubai: three named authorities; 'Dubai regulated' is not a source.

RCA publishes source-linked intelligence for professionals. Nothing here is a token-buying call, a legal opinion, or an “approved / safe / regulated” badge. Every material claim is dated. Incomplete files stay incomplete.
