US regulators say banks won't face extra capital charges on tokenized securities
March 5, 2026--U.S. banking regulators clarified on Thursday that banks should not have to hold additional capital against losses when dealing with blockchain-based securities, saying their rules are "technology neutral."
The Federal Reserve, Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation and Office of the Comptroller of the Currency issued new guidance clarifying that they will not distinguish between tokenized securities and traditional securities when it comes to bank capital.
The agencies said they were issuing the document due to increasing interest from banks in representing ownership rights in tokenized securities.

Markets send the signals-ETF flows show where investors are headed
March 4, 2026-Signs and signals are everywhere. They help us orient ourselves, make decisions, and act. Street signs keep you from turning down a wrong way. Trail markers tell you whether the next mile is a steep scramble or a scenic path. Even in baseball, a catcher flashes three fingers and taps his thigh to signal what pitch to throw and where to place it.
Signs and signals are information we can process and act on.
Markets send signals too. Investors today are navigating an abundance of them-elevated valuations, both optimism and anxiety around artificial intelligence (AI), rising global deficits, and tech/software-led credit stress. And now, military escalation in the Middle East threatens global shipping lanes, energy supply, and inflation expectations. The signals are loud, frequent, and sometimes conflicting.
