The DRCF has published a joint insights paper by the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) and the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) which considers and explores both consumer attitudes towards digital assets and how they interact with these products. This paper fulfils a 2023-24 DRCF workplan commitment to build a deeper understanding of the potential benefits and harms posed to consumers by digital assets. Building a collective understanding of consumer attitudes and interactions with digital assets will help support an informed regulatory approach, from both a financial and data protection regulation perspective.
