🚨 The European Commission (EC) is probing potential collusion between exchange giants Deutsche Börse and Nasdaq.

Sara Simonini, press officer for competition at the EC, shared that “the parties agreed not to compete for the listing, trading, and clearing of certain financial derivatives.”

The exchanges are accused of agreeing to allocate demand, coordinate prices, and even share commercially sensitive trading data.

🔥 T. Rowe Price has swapped its in-house system for a customized PBI platform from Genesis Global.

The result? Less data fragmentation, faster decisions, and a cleaner workflow across trading, research, and portfolio teams.

"A particularly valuable feature is the ability to generate a composite deal record that captures the full structure of each transaction, which becomes essential during periods of elevated issuance," says Dwayne Middleton, global head of fixed income trading at T. Rowe Price.

What if the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) become a unified regulator? 🤔

Timothy G. Massad, a former CFTC chairman, thinks merging the SEC and CFTC is "the best way to regulate digital assets," and with crypto regulation pressures heating up, Massad urges that this is the perfect time to merge.

SEC Chairman, Paul Atkins, jumped into the conversation: "our focus is on harmonization, not on a merger of the SEC and CFTC...What matters is building a framework where our agencies coordinate seamlessly, reduce duplicative regulation, and give markets the clarity they deserve."

Yes, even robots can hallucinate 🤖

Securities firms have found that A.I. can improve anti-money laundering (AML) practices. However, when these systems malfunction, things can quickly spiral out of control.

David Caruso of WorkFusion spoke with us about A.I. hallucinations in financial crime compliance operations, explaining how they can be avoided while reassuring the utility of LLMs in AML practices.

🚀 Tokenization surge incoming

Broadridge Financial Solutions' Distributed Ledger Report (DLR) hit a record $385B in daily tokenized repo transactions—a 492% surge in just ONE year. But wait, it gets better: Reports indicate that tokenized assets could represent $10-16T in value by 2030.

The proof is in the pudding--the shift to tokenized settlement is officially underway.

Only 12% of asset managers think their reporting meets client expectations. Yikes. 😬
