Blog post from Didit
Mariona Pericas Estrada is a prominent expert in financial regulation and digital assets, focusing particularly on crypto assets and blockchain technology. With a background in law and business administration, she has over nine years of experience advising financial institutions and now serves as director and principal associate at finReg360. Her expertise, especially in payment services regulations and the emerging Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) regulation, has earned her recognition in the fintech industry. MiCA represents a significant regulatory shift aimed at providing more guarantees and confidence to investors by mandating asset segregation, licensing, and supervision for crypto service providers. Mariona asserts that while current regulations may pose challenges for compliance in the crypto sector, they ultimately enhance public perception and attract talent and investment. She also highlights that blockchain technology could revolutionize various sectors by reducing intermediaries and automating processes, although its full potential depends on how traditional entities adapt. Additionally, Mariona discusses the Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA), emphasizing its role in ensuring the digital resilience of financial institutions through robust contingency plans and cybersecurity measures. Despite concerns about excessive regulation stifling innovation, she believes that regulatory frameworks are essential for stability and consumer protection, and anticipates future challenges in regulating artificial intelligence within financial services.
