Event Summary

The United States — New York State Department of Financial Services (NYDFS) and the European Union — European Banking Authority (EBA) signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) on June 2, 2026, to coordinate stablecoin supervision. This agreement establishes a framework for sharing confidential supervisory information, identifying market trends and risks, and coordinating crisis responses for stablecoin activities under both agencies' jurisdictions. The EBA's authority stems from the Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation (MiCA), which became effective in late 2024, while NYDFS has overseen stablecoin issuance since 2018. The MoU aims to enhance consumer protection and market integrity, particularly for major stablecoins like ERC's USDT and Circle Internet Group's USDC. This collaboration will lead to increased scrutiny and compliance costs for stablecoin issuers, potentially favoring larger, better-resourced entities. The global stablecoin market, exceeding $319 billion, is currently in a consolidation phase, influenced by new regulations and macroeconomic factors.
