ChainCatcher news, according to CoinDesk, the European Banking Authority (EBA) released the final draft of the technical standards for prudential requirements that companies must comply with under the Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) legislation on Thursday. The EBA's standards establish the criteria for stress testing programs and detail the liquidity requirements for reserve assets, as well as the recovery plans that issuers need to develop.

The recently published proposal states: "Issuers of asset-referenced tokens need to conduct stress tests based on reasonable financial stress scenarios, and the competent authority will be able to increase the own funds requirements for issuers of asset-referenced tokens based on the risk outlook and the results of the stress tests."

This technical standard draft was developed in close cooperation with groups from 27 countries, the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA), and the European Central Bank (ECB), among other institutions. MiCA is a comprehensive set of tailored rules designed for the cryptocurrency industry, passed last year. The legislation sets rules for cryptocurrency companies and stablecoin issuers.
