- Can you briefly explain what the German Electronic Securities Act (Gesetz über elektronische Wertpapiere, eWpG) is all about?
- The German Electronic Securities Act (Gesetz über elektronische Wertpapiere, eWpG) is a significant legislative step towards the digitization of the financial sector in Germany. It represents a move away from the traditional requirement for physical certificates to represent securities and towards a system that allows for the issuance and trading of electronic securities. Here are some key aspects of the eWpG:
1. Innovative Technologies: The eWpG enables the use of distributed ledger technology (DLT) for the issuance of bearer bonds. This reflects Germany’s openness to contemporary technological developments in the financial markets.
2. Legal Equivalence: The act stipulates that the issuance of an electronic security (e-security) has the same legal consequences, rights, and obligations as the issuance of a certified security. This ensures that electronic securities are fully recognized under the law.
3. Electronic Securities Registers: The eWpG establishes a legal framework for the trading of rights through electronic securities registers. These registers serve as an alternative to the conventional paper-based system for the creation and transfer of securities.
4. Crypto Securities Register License: A new license category has been introduced for entities that maintain a crypto securities register, which is essential for the administration of electronic securities.
5. Regulatory Amendments: The eWpG has led to changes in various regulatory frameworks, including the German Stock Exchange Admission Regulation, the German Securities Prospectus Act, and others, to accommodate the introduction of electronic securities.
6. Consumer Protection and Blockchain Strategy: The act is part of the German government’s blockchain strategy and is aligned with the joint paper by the German Federal Ministry of Finance and the Federal Ministry of Justice and Consumer Protection on the regulatory treatment of electronic securities and crypto tokens.
7. Phased Approach: Initially, the eWpG is limited to bearer bonds, with plans to include other types of securities, such as equity instruments and other debt instruments, at a later stage.
8. Market Integrity and Transparency: The introduction of electronic securities is intended to enhance the viability, integrity, transparency, and functioning of the German financial markets.
The eWpG is a clear indication of Germany’s commitment to modernizing its financial market infrastructure and embracing the potential of blockchain and other DLTs to innovate securities trading and settlement.
