A regulatory sandbox is a formal regulatory initiative to live-test new products, services, or business models on a time- and scope-limited basis. This helps to determine the appropriate regulatory treatment or status of innovative solutions to enable them to safely operate in the marketplace.

  • Are regulatory sandboxes the best option on the menu for regulatory innovation?
  • The current state of regulatory sandboxes globally
  • The typology and approaches to regulatory sandboxes
  • Inclusive finance and regulatory sandboxes
