The Council of the European Union has scheduled a meeting of Financial Services Attachés (MISP - DTLPR) for 15 July 2026 to discuss the DLT Pilot Regime elements within a broader legislative package on capital market integration and supervision. The notice, published on 2 July 2026, indicates that the meeting will review a proposed Master Regulation amending 14 existing EU financial regulations—including EMIR, MiFIR, CSDR, and SFTR—to enhance capital market integration and supervision. The agenda and meeting documents are to be published shortly on the Delegates Portal.
The meeting focuses on the DLT Pilot Regime, a framework intended to facilitate the adoption of distributed ledger technology in financial markets by allowing temporary exemptions from certain rules. The broader Master Regulation aims to streamline and harmonize capital market rules across multiple financial regulations, potentially leading to enhanced supervisory coordination within the EU financial system. The attachés' discussion will feed into the Council's ongoing work on capital markets union, with implications for market participants, regulators, and technology providers. The meeting is a preparatory step before formal legislative proposals are considered by the Council and the European Parliament.
