SIO-14.8.5
Although Article 136 of the CBB Law specifies the circumstances in which the CBB may pursue an administration, it does not oblige the CBB to administer a stablecoin issuer. Faced with the circumstances described, the CBB may pursue other courses of action such as suspension of a license (under Article 131 of the CBB Law), if it considers that these are more likely to achieve the supervisory outcomes sought. Because an administration is likely to send a negative signal to the markets about the status of a stablecoin issuer, other supervisory actions may in fact be preferable in terms of protecting the interests of those with a claim on the stablecoin issuer.
