Article 3

Conflicts of interest potentially detrimental to the holders of asset-referenced tokens

1.   The policies and procedures referred to in Article 32(1) of Regulation (EU) 2023/1114 to identify, prevent, manage and disclose conflicts of interest potentially detrimental to the holders of asset-referenced tokens shall address conflicts of interest that arise in the course of issuing, processing and redeeming asset-referenced tokens or of investing or managing the reserve of assets referred to in Article 36 of Regulation (EU) 2023/1114, and shall cover any of the following situations:

(a)

a connected person is likely to make a financial gain, avoid a financial loss, or receive another kind of benefit, to the detriment of the holder of asset-referenced tokens;

(b)

a connected person has an interest in the outcome of an activity carried out to the benefit of the holder of asset-referenced tokens, including the redemption of the token, which is distinct from the interest of the holder of asset-referenced tokens.

2.   When identifying the types of conflicts of interest that arise in the course of the activities referred to in paragraph 1, issuers of asset-referenced tokens shall assess whether they or a member of their management body or one of their employees receive or will receive from a person other than the holder of asset-referenced tokens an inducement in relation to that activity in the form of monetary or non-monetary benefit or services in a way that may damage the interest of the holder of asset-referenced tokens.
