ITFA Responds to Law Commission Consultation on Digital Assets & Electronic Trade Documents

The Law Commission of England and Wales has published a consultation paper addressing conflicts of laws issues affecting digital assets.  These include electronic trade documents, following the passage of the Electronic Trade Documents Act 2023.

🔗 The link to the consultation can be found here.

Many electronic trade documents are governed by English law and the consultation, whilst apparently technical, is therefore critical to the global spread and acceptance of these documents.

As one of its first acts, ITFA’s Regulatory Affairs Committee has responded to the consultation. If you are interested in seeing a copy of ITFA’s response, please email contact us on info@itfa.org.
