Singapore's MAS Proposes Labeling Only Licensed Stablecoins as 'MAS-Regulated'

  • —Only licensed issuers could label assets as 'MAS-regulated stablecoins'
  • —Other stablecoins would remain under the digital payment token framework
  • —Foreign-issued stablecoins could qualify under comparable overseas regimes
  • —MAS consultation opened September 1, with submissions due October 16
Why it matters: Regulatory status could become a new way to distinguish stablecoins on trading platforms, alongside price and market cap.
