GBBC Digital Finance is now one of over 200 affiliated members of the International Organization of Securities Commissions, which also includes 35 national regulators.
GBBC Digital Finance announced on Feb. 16 that it has joined the International Organization of Securities Commissions (IOSCO) as an affiliate member. The IOSCO is an international association that develops and promotes international standards for securities.
IOSCO’s members include 35 national securities regulators and over 200 affiliated organizations. In addition, the IOSCO has an Affiliate Members Consultative Committee, which GBBC Digital Finance has joined as its 70th member. The committee provides input on IOSCO policy and standards. Committee members also form groups that hold annual trainings on securities-related issues.
The IOSCO released its “Crypto-Asset Roadmap” in July. GBBC Digital Finance chair Lawrence Wintermeyer said in a statement:
"We will work with IOSCO to best engage our members in 2023 in providing any assistance we can to the two IOSCO Crypto-Asset Roadmap working groups, Crypto and Digital Assets (CDA) and Decentralised Finance (DeFi)."
The IOSCO released a paper on DeFi in March that highlighted several risks it saw in the technology. Also in July, the IOSCO teamed up with the Bank for International Settlements to issue guidance on stablecoins.

It merged with Global Digital Finance, a market standards association for the adoption of cryptocurrencies and digital assets, in May 2022 to form GBBC Digital Finance.
