Produktinformationen "A comparative study of token offering mechanisms ICOs vs. STOs"

Bachelor Thesis from the year 2021 in the subject Business economics - Investment and Finance, grade: 1,7, University of Frankfurt (Main), language: English, abstract: A token offering is a novel mechanism that enables firms to raise funding by issuing tokens to external investors. Tokens are digital assets that are cryptographically secured and based on distributed ledger technology (DLT), whereas blockchain technology is the most prevalent type of DLT. Depending on the type of token issued in a token offering, one can distinguish between initial token offerings (ICOs) and security token offerings (STOs). Utility and currency tokens are issued in ICOs, security tokens are issued in STOs. Both mechanisms differ in their degree of regulation as STOs fall under much stricter securities regulations.Fundraising mechanisms are a prime topic in finance literature as firms require capital to grow, and there is fierce competition for capital. Initial work examining token offerings predominantly provides studies focusing ICOs. However, there is a lack of studies focusing on STOs, with the exception of Lambert et al. (2020). I seek to extend the finance literature by focusing on both ICOs, and STOs. Hence, I provide a comparative analysis of both fundraising mechanisms: ICOs vs. STOs.

EU Gewährleistungssiegel

Die EU führt ein verpflichtendes, einheitliches EU-Label zur Information über die gesetzliche Gewährleistung ein, ergänzt durch ein Garantielabel, sofern eine freiwillige Herstellergarantie besteht.

Ziel der neuen Regelung ist es, Verbraucherrechte transparenter darzustellen und europaweit einheitliche Informationsstandards zu schaffen. Verbraucher sollen auf einen Blick erkennen können, welche gesetzlichen Mindeststandards gelten, unabhängig davon, in welchem Land oder bei welchem Händler sie einkaufen.

EU Warranty Label

The European Union is introducing a mandatory, standardized EU label to provide information about consumers’ statutory warranty rights. This will be complemented by a guarantee label where a voluntary manufacturer’s guarantee is offered.

The purpose of this new regulation is to make consumer rights more transparent and to establish consistent information standards across the European Union. Consumers should be able to see at a glance which statutory minimum protections apply, regardless of the country or retailer from which they make a purchase.
