But it is not yet in force and will take effect on such date as the minister for digital economy may establish by notice in the Government Gazette. The MFSA is currently de- vising the Virtual Financial Assets Framework underly- ing and complementing the Act. In this regard, on 4 July the MFSA published a Con- sultation Paper on the Virtual Financial Assets Regulations to be issued under the Virtual Financial Services Act present- ing a draft Legal Notice setting out regulations on exemp- tions, fees, control of assets, and administrative penalties and appeals. The period closed on Friday. On 12 July, the MFSA pub- lished a Consultation Paper on the Virtual Financial Assets Rules for VFA Agents present- ing Chapter 1 of the proposed Virtual Financial Assets Rule- book. This chapter set out the high-level principles which VFA agents must adhere to, registration requirement and the respective registration process, on-going obligations for the VFA agents, and en- forcement and sanctions in the event of misconduct by VFA agents. The period for this consultation closes on 31 July. The MFSA will be issu- ing Chapter 2 of the Rulebook (Virtual Financial Assets Rules for Issuers of Virtual Financial Assets) and Chapter 3 of the Rulebook (Virtual Financial Assets Rules for VFA Service Providers) for consultation in the coming weeks. The final Regulations and Rulebook underlying the Act will be issued following consid- eration of the feedback received to the above-mentioned con- sultations. Financial Instrument Test The MFSA yesterday issued the Financial Instrument Test which is applicable to issu- ers offering DLT assets to the public in or from within Malta; and to persons providing any service and/or performing any activity, within the context of either the Virtual Financial As- sets Act 1 or traditional finan- cial services legislation . The Financial Instrument Test seeks to determine wheth- er a DLT asset qualifies as Elec- tronic Money, a Financial In- strument as defined under the Second Schedule to the Invest- ment Services Act 3, whether issued in Malta or otherwise; a Virtual Financial Asset ; or a Virtual Token as defined un- der the Virtual Financial Assets Act. The Guidance Note assists users to compile the Financial Instrument Test by providing clarity and consistency in the determination of the appropri- ate legislative framework ap- plicable to the DLT asset being assessed and the respective ser- vices being offered thereto. The MFSA invites interested parties and prospective users to test the Financial Instrument Test and address any queries and feedback by email on fin- tech@mfsa.com.mt by not later than 13 August 2018.
