Beyond Consumer Protection: Standardized Stablecoins Disclosure as Information Infrastructure
This article argues for standardized disclosure for stablecoins regulation. Information disclosure has long been considered a primary tool for consumer protection. Stablecoin issuers should disclose honestly and responsibly about the qualification of themselves, as well as the value, quantity, and operational mechanism of their stablecoins. Such disclosure can prevent issuers from taking advantage of information asymmetries for consumer exploitation or fraud. It is then up to the consumers to make informed investment or consumption decisions. More importantly, this paper argues that the fundamental role of information disclosure is to form a knowledge base for financial regulation and policymaking. The importance of information lies not only in the information itself, but also in the knowledge that is generated from a large amount of information, such as systemic risk assessment and proportionate regulatory response. Monetary and financial theories can refute some of the obvious fraud or scams in the market, but the shape of regulatory expertise for proportionate response needs more empirical evidence. Regulators must acknowledge that they do not always fully understand the status quo and risks of stablecoins to formulate proportionate regulatory rules. This is why, recently, experimental regulations (such as regulatory sandboxes) are being promoted in many countries. Regulators should not passively wait until the market situation becomes clear, which may be the turning point between a boom and bust that is too late to stop the crisis. Instead, regulators should actively collect information from the market. Such information gathering will serve as the information infrastructure for longer-term and larger scale regulation and governance. Finally, this article proposes a framework for stablecoins disclosure. This includes the purpose of the stablecoin and technologies used for operation; the price stabilization mechanism including exchange rate, reserve assets or algorithmic design; issuance quantity of the stablecoin; risk factors that affect price stability, distribution channels, and transaction rules. This information should be standardized and published on a centralized platform, with structural language for easier comparison and risk assessment
A Not-So Turkish Delight: The Implications of Turkey’s Unprecedented Withdrawal from a Groundbreaking Women’s Rights Treaty and the Need for International Reform
Domestic violence against women is one of the most pervasive and pressing international issues of our time. There have been multiple international human rights treaties enacted to address this issue and move to end gender-based violence—the Council of Europe Convention on Preventing and Combatting Violence Against Women and Domestic Violence (Istanbul Convention) being one. Created in 2011, the Istanbul Convention sought to provide an international legal framework for how states should work toward eradicating gender-based violence. Turkey, the first country to sign and to subsequently ratify the Istanbul Convention, unprecedently withdrew from the Convention in 2021. Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan stated publicly that the country of Turkey was against the Convention because it normalized homosexuality and was damaging to Turkish family values. However, as this Note will explain, President Erdoğan’s withdrawal from the Istanbul Convention was in clear violation of the Turkish Constitution. This Note will explore the unconstitutionality of that withdrawal, first by setting up the historical backdrop against which President Erdoğan decided to withdraw, including spans of economic downturn in Turkey and more socially conservative values being promoted by the government. This Note will then explain how not only did the president’s withdrawal from the Convention violate Turkey’s constitution, but it also prompted Turkey to be in noncompliance with other international human rights treaties to which it is a signatory. This Note concludes by proposing multiple avenues on which Turkey and the rest of the world can unite to rebuild a better protective framework in Turkey for women and girls against domestic violence, including strengthened political efforts, enhanced education on gender-based violence, and an appeal to the European Court of Human Rights
