Regulatory Sandbox
A regulatory sandbox is a controlled environment set up by a regulator that lets firms test innovative products or services under supervision, often with some relief from certain regulatory requirements. The aim is to help both the business and the regulator understand the opportunities and risks of an innovation before it is fully rolled out. Sandboxes have been used prominently in financial services, though the specific terms and legal effect vary by jurisdiction.
