The European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) refreshed its MiCA register on Wednesday, adding Dinaro, a Slovenian e-money institution, to the list of electronic money token (EMT) issuers — the first time a Slovenian firm has entered that register, according to Cointelegraph. Dinaro is supervised by the Bank of Slovenia and offers payment services spanning card issuance and acquiring; it also holds principal membership with Mastercard, which enables direct card issuing on the network. The update brings the total number of registered EMT issuers to 43, while the asset-referenced token (ART) list remains empty. ESMA's register of non-compliant entities is unchanged at 167. In the crypto-asset service provider (CASP) category, the regulator added two institutions in this cycle: Czech bank Partners Banka and Germany's Volksbank Beilstein-Ilsfeld-Abstatt. CASP registrations now stand at 325. Czech firm Altlift, which had been included in early July, has been removed from the roster.
The European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) updated its MiCA register on Wednesday, adding Slovenian e-money institution Dinaro to the list of electronic money token (EMT) issuers. It is the first time a firm from Slovenia has appeared on the register, according to Cointelegraph.
Dinaro operates under the supervision of the Bank of Slovenia. Its payment services cover both card issuing and acquiring, and the company also holds principal membership with Mastercard — a status that lets it issue cards directly on the payment network.
Following the update, the EMT register counts 43 issuers in total. The asset-referenced token (ART) category is still empty. ESMA's list of non-compliant entities remains unchanged at 167.
Registrations of crypto-asset service providers (CASPs) also moved this week. ESMA added Czech bank Partners Banka and Germany's Volksbank Beilstein-Ilsfeld-Abstatt, lifting the CASP total to 325. At the same time, Altlift — a Czech firm that had entered the list in early July — has been removed.
