HM Treasury is affiliated with the UK Government and has played a central role in shaping Britain's approach to digital assets. Together with the Financial Conduct Authority and the Bank of England, it established the Cryptoassets Taskforce, whose final report published in 2018 set out the UK's policy and regulatory approach to cryptoassets. On 29 April 2025, HM Treasury published draft legislation to bring cryptoasset activities, including exchanges and custody services, within the UK financial-services regulatory perimeter. That process advanced when the government passed the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (Cryptoassets) Regulations 2026, creating a formal UK regulatory regime for cryptoassets.
HM Treasury continues to work alongside the Bank of England to explore the potential introduction of a digital pound. In September 2025, HM Treasury and the US Treasury jointly launched the Transatlantic Taskforce for Markets of the Future, which issued recommendations in July 2026 addressing digital assets and tokenisation.
