Chile's Fintech Law of 2023 brought crypto service providers into the financial regulatory perimeter as a matter of ordinary course: platforms offering exchange, custody, or intermediation of crypto assets register with and are supervised by the CMF, with capital, governance, and disclosure requirements phased in through implementing regulations across 2024 and 2025. The law's open-finance framework and its technology-neutral definition of financial instruments mean tokenized securities fall naturally under existing rules, and the central bank has announced it will consult on a framework setting conditions for stablecoin issuance in Chile.
Chile's approach is the region's quietest, with no dedicated crypto statute and no bans, and its enforcement is getting sharper: in June 2026 the CMF rejected seven Fintech Law applications and ordered the rejected firms to stop taking new business.
