Why regulatory sandboxes are spreading beyond financial technology
Controlled pilot programs are being used to test rules for emerging products before applying a full regulatory framework.

Learning before scaling

New technologies can create situations that existing rules did not anticipate. A limited pilot can help regulators observe real behavior before committing to a permanent framework.

Boundaries matter

Good sandboxes define who can participate, how long a test lasts, what protections remain mandatory and how results are evaluated.
