The European Central Bank (ECB), the European Commission, and the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) have called on stakeholders in the wholesale financial industry to express interest in joining the European Tokenisation Standards Group (ETSG).
The ETSG seeks to establish a framework for monitoring compliance and formulate recommendations for EU authorities on how to incentivise adherence to agreed standards in an interconnected tokenised financial ecosystem.
According to the ECB, the European Commission, and ESMA, the group’s work will be market-driven and shaped by the contributions and consensus of industry stakeholders.
The ETSG will be chaired by market participants and observed by the European regulators.
Participation is open to EU associations, private entities, global institutions, fintechs, and technical providers working on tokenisation or distributed ledger technology-based financial services, in accordance with the ETSG’s mandate.
Interested parties have been invited to review additional background information and respond to the call for nominations, with an application deadline of 27 November 2026.
