South Korea is considering a 15%-20% cap on the stake a single shareholder can hold in a cryptocurrency trading platform, as a draft digital asset law is targeted for submission this month. According to Odaily, the Financial Services Commission is working to resolve differences among government agencies over the draft and expects it to advance through legislation proposed by lawmakers. The proposed cap could come with a one- to two-year transition period for existing platforms. Regulators are also considering limiting voting rights instead, amid concerns about property rights. The draft would replace a registration system for trading platforms with a licensing system, and stablecoin issuers are expected to take the form of bank-centered consortiums. Proposals also include no-fault liability for losses caused by hacking or system accidents and making violations of actual crypto-asset holding requirements grounds for suspending operations. South Korean Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Finance and Economy Lee Hyung-il said on November 5 that the government would consult with the National Assembly on delaying the crypto-asset income tax, originally scheduled to take effect next year, by two years. The ruling party favors prioritizing the law to establish an overall regulatory framework and give companies and investors time to adjust.

On November 7, UK Prime Minister Andy Burnham was preparing to use two European summits in November to pursue closer economic ties with the EU and reduce the impact of post-Brexit trade barriers on UK growth. According to Sina Finance, Burnham will attend the European Political Community meeting in Dublin on November 12 and travel to Brussels for the UK-EU summit on November 20, as the government seeks to advance slow-moving bilateral talks. The negotiations mainly cover youth mobility, agricultural trade and carbon emissions rules. Disagreements remain, including over the EU’s demand that the UK resolve the issue of tuition discounts for EU students separately, rather than linking it to UK businesses’ eligibility to participate in EU industrial policies. The UK government wants to lower costs for British businesses by easing some trade restrictions and simplifying regulatory procedures. Since becoming prime minister in July, Burnham has shown more flexibility on EU policy than his predecessor, Starmer. The government is assessing options including a dedicated economic partnership, rejoining the EU customs union or the European single market, and potentially rejoining the EU in the future. The options carry different political and economic costs: rejoining the single market could improve UK businesses’ access to trade but would require accepting free movement rules, while a customs union could avoid some immigration disputes but offer more limited economic benefits. The discussions have raised concerns within the UK Labour Party. Some lawmakers representing constituencies that backed Brexit in 2016 fear renewed debate over immigration and national sovereignty could deepen domestic political divisions and create an opportunity for Nigel Farage’s Reform UK. Recent polls show increased public support for closer EU ties, but that does not necessarily mean voters want to revisit years of Brexit-related political debate. The EU is also cautious about whether the UK can turn its more positive political statements into concrete agreements.
