By now regulatory sandboxes operate in 57 countries and have become an important policy tool for governments to support the emergence of a FinTech sector. We use comprehensive data from the UK regulatory sandbox which was the first sandbox ever created and has the largest number of participating companies overall. We find evidence of positive externalities at the industry level. Participation in the sandbox by one start-up is followed by increased entry and more money being raised by other start-ups in the same industry. There is some evidence that the sandbox screens out better companies, but we find no evidence that companies' momentum significantly increases after their participation in the sandbox.
