The coalition, including Boerse Stuttgart and Nasdaq, seeks quicker regulatory updates to prevent competitive disadvantage against the U.S. in digital finance. Requested changes include expanding asset types, raising transaction limits to 150 billion euros, and removing license expiry dates for expanded market testing.
