Unlocking the blockchain: A global legal and regulatory guide | Download Chapter 1

Interest in blockchain technologies has grown dramatically over the last twelve months. This has triggered growth in investment in businesses operating in this area and marked engagement from all industry sectors (and financial institutions in particular) in blockchain technologies and their disruptive potential. Such engagement has led to the development of increasingly sophisticated proof-of-concept use cases and notable live deployments. Our global blockchain and distributed ledgers practice group has produced a global legal and regulatory guide to blockchain technologies which explores the regulatory considerations and a range of other legal issues that should be taken into account with any proposed deployment. The guide will be published in a series of chapters, with the first one covering ‘an introduction to blockchain technologies’ that we invite you to read. If you wish to receive the subsequent chapters, please click the register button above. We hope you find this first chapter insightful. Please do get in touch if you would like to discuss any aspect of this topic in greater detail. Read more.
