New York State Department of Financial Services (DFS) Acting Superintendent Kaitlin Asrow today announced a proposed regulation to build on New York’s first-in-the-nation stablecoin framework in accordance with federal regulations under the GENIUS Act. Following the Department’s groundbreaking June 2022 guidance, this regulation contains additional provisions to ensure alignment with the U.S. Department of Treasury’s proposed requirements for state frameworks to be certified under GENIUS.   “The rules and expectations that we have in New York for virtual currency companies have protected New Yorkers and facilitated a stable market,” said Acting Superintendent Kaitlin Asrow. “The GENIUS Act’s provisions mirror DFS’s stablecoin framework, and this proposal will ensure that the Department’s regulatory regime is in full alignment with new federal requirements while maintaining our standard for protecting consumers and fostering responsible innovation.”  The regulation proposed today includes the Department’s prior requirements for stablecoins backed by the U.S. dollar that are issued under DFS oversight, including for backing and redeemability, permissible reserves, and independent audits. The regulation proposed today also addresses new federal provisions, including setting maximum amounts of reserves that can be held at any one custodian and requiring entities to adopt risk management programs addressing internal controls, information security, an internal audit system, asset growth, earnings, insider and affiliate transactions, and service provider arrangements.   DFS is committed to keeping pace with the virtual currency industry as it evolves and proactively responding to the market through data-driven policy. This approach includes regular engagement with industry, consumer advocates, the legislature, and other regulators; monitoring key trends and issues through research and data collection; and ensuring we have the appropriate expertise and operational tools within DFS to drive policy and supervision.  The proposed regulation is subject to a 10-day preproposal comment period beginning today, followed by a 60-day comment period upon publication in the State Register. DFS will carefully review these comments to refine the rule as needed and ensure it best serves the needs of New Yorkers. The final regulation will take effect at the same time as the GENIUS Act becomes effective, with a one-year transition period for existing New York-licensed issuers. Until the regulation is applicable, the Department’s Stablecoin Regulatory Guidance remains in effect.  Visit the DFS website to review the proposed regulation or submit feedback.

LSEG announces that the reduction of capital approved by shareholders at the Annual General Meeting of the Company held on 23 April 2026 (the Capital Reduction) was on 2 June 2026 approved by the High Court of Justice of England and Wales (the Court). The Court order approving the Capital Reduction, and a statement of capital approved by the Court, have been registered with the Registrar of Companies and accordingly the Capital Reduction has now become effective. The purpose of the Capital Reduction is to increase the amount of distributable reserves available for the Company to provide flexibility for future dividends and share buybacks. This has been effected by: (i) converting part of the Company's merger relief reserve into share capital by issuing one B ordinary share having a nominal value of £10,347 million (the Capital Reduction Share) and then cancelling the Capital Reduction Share; and (ii) cancelling the full amount standing to the credit of the Company's share premium account (being £977,839,016.67). There is no change in the number of the Company's ordinary shares in issue, or their nominal value, as a result of the Capital Reduction.

The Securities Commission Malaysia (“SC”) and Bursa Malaysia Berhad (“Bursa Malaysia”) today launched the MY Value Up Programme Guidebook (“Guidebook”), to help public listed companies (“PLCs”) create their medium-to long-term value and transform them into globally attractive investment propositions. The Guidebook was launched by YAB Deputy Prime Minister Dato’ Seri Dr. Ahmad Zahid Hamidi at the Invest Malaysia Kuala Lumpur Conference 2026, in the presence of capital market leaders and industry stakeholders. The MY Value Up programme, jointly introduced by the SC and Bursa Malaysia in April, is a structured initiative under the Capital Market Masterplan 2026-2030.  It aims to encourage PLCs to develop and communicate clear growth strategies, targets and capital allocation priorities. It also seeks to promote stronger investor engagement and greater board-level focus on value creation. The Guidebook translates these principles into practical applications, providing PLCs with a common reference point - examples of key components and suggested metrics in their enhanced forward-looking disclosures.  It outlines expectations and baseline considerations for PLCs in developing and publishing their MY Value Up plan, which is voluntary but highly encouraged. MY Value Up will be implemented through a phased approach to ensure structured and purposeful adoption.  2026 – Familiarisation and alignment Focused on building understanding, this phase emphasises engagement and dialogue with regulators, while encouraging PLCs to consciously assess their focus areas and how these can be articulated through their strategy and disclosures.  SC and Bursa Malaysia will engage with the targeted PLCs for the submission of the MY Value Up Plans.  2027 – Publication and engagement Targeted PLCs are expected to begin publishing MY Value Up plans to the public, establishing a market-facing baseline and enabling more informed investor engagement and feedback. Since the launch of the programme, the SC and Bursa Malaysia have engaged Senior Management from most of the largest 88 PLCs, which represent about 80% of Bursa Malaysia’s total market capitalisation. Each PLC has a minimum market capitalisation of about RM4 billion. A series of workshops has been conducted to deepen engagement and gather stakeholder feedback on the programme.  This will be followed by continuous engagements with PLCs via regular dialogues, sharing feedback, and identifying opportunities on how the SC and Bursa Malaysia can better support the PLCs in achieving their strategic objectives. The MY Value Up Programme Guidebook is now available at https://www.bursamalaysia.com/reference/my-value-up-programme/overview. 

The GCC Financial Markets Committee announced the GCC Unified Investor Number (GCC-NIN) initiative, a strategic regional framework designed to support greater connectivity and interoperability across GCC capital markets. The GCC-NIN initiative aims to establish a common investor reference identifier for GCC investors, supporting a more seamless experience across regional capital markets while enhancing operational consistency and efficiency across post-trade environments. The initiative reflects the Committee’s ongoing efforts to strengthen regional market integration and advance the long-term development of a more connected GCC capital market ecosystem. Expected to be launched during 2026, the GCC-NIN is intended to facilitate greater consistency in investor identification across GCC markets, reduce duplication in investor identification processes, and support future regional custody, settlement, and asset servicing capabilities, while fully respecting the regulatory and legal frameworks of each GCC jurisdiction. This initiative reflects the strong collaboration between GCC market infrastructure institutions and our shared commitment to enhancing operational efficiency, improving investor accessibility, and supporting the long-term competitiveness of GCC capital markets. We look forward to progressing its implementation during this year as part of our broader efforts to strengthen regional financial market integration. The GCC Financial Markets Committee comprises representatives from leading exchanges and market infrastructure institutions across the GCC and aims to support the growth of regional capital markets, strengthen cross-border collaboration, and enhance the competitiveness of GCC financial markets globally.

Intercontinental Exchange, Inc. (NYSE: ICE), one of the world's leading providers of financial market technology and data powering global capital markets, today announced the launch of ICE Compass, an AI-powered trading analytics platform that gives buy-side fixed income trading desks prioritized trader counterparty rankings and price estimates before executing trades. T. Rowe Price, which provided valuable feedback during the development process and beta testing, has signed on as an anchor client. ICE Compass enables customers to combine their own real-time and historical trading data with ICE’s market data and pricing streams, as well as the millions of bids and offers, indications of interest and other pricing data points that they receive from trading counterparties each day. The model tracks intraday market movements, trading costs and trading behaviors to generate estimates that help support counterparty selection and pre-trade cost analysis. “Since our founding, innovation and electronification of markets have been key components of the company’s DNA,” said Chris Edmonds, President of ICE’s Fixed Income and Data Services. “ICE Compass embodies those founding principles and builds on the broad platform that we’ve built around fixed income trading and data at ICE over the years to offer a new level of transparency to the pre-trade lifecycle.” ICE Compass is built on ICE’s proprietary data assets, including ICE Continuous Evaluated Pricing, fixed income liquidity metrics and indices. The Compass data model improves over time and is continuously refined as new trading data is incorporated. By applying AI and data science expertise, the ICE Compass platform is able to estimate trading counterparty price commitment prior to indicating trading intent and ranks trading counterparties on the competitiveness of their prices across corporates and sovereign bonds globally. “Finding useful, pre-trade intelligence in the enormous amount of data that buyside firms are bombarded with each day has become increasingly difficult,” said Varun Pawar, Chief Product Officer, Data Services at ICE. “By pooling together data from across firms, trading counterparties and ICE’s vast data warehouse, we’re able to create a pre-trade view of dealer rankings and final cost-of-trade estimates across the market, giving customers a powerful new tool for optimizing their trading strategies and managing risk.” “At T. Rowe Price, we are focused on using data, technology, and market insight to make faster, more informed trading decisions and enhance execution outcomes for our clients,” said Dwayne Middleton, Global Head of Fixed Income Trading at T. Rowe Price. “Our collaboration with ICE on Compass reflects that priority and supports our continued evolution toward a more transparent, data-driven, and scalable trading model.” ICE Compass leverages ICE’s vast fixed income and data services platform, which includes comprehensive fixed income execution, clearing and data solutions that can help enhance market insights, manage risks, and uncover investment opportunities. ICE provides fixed income evaluations on approximately three million instruments, reference data across global markets, and indices across all asset classes, with $2 trillion in AUM benchmarked to them. For connectivity and data access, ICE offers a suite of desktop solutions and data feeds, as well as the ICE Global Network, which offers high-quality content, delivery and execution services through ultra-secure, highly resilient fiber and wireless networks.

First-time buyers, older borrowers and the self-employed could find it easier to get a mortgage, as the FCA sets out next steps to help reform the market. Its proposed mortgage rule changes would give lenders more flexibility to consider individual circumstances and develop products that better meet people's needs – while maintaining strong consumer protections. They include: Reducing barriers for lenders to offer flexible repayments for people with variable income, like the self-employed, and lend to those paid in foreign currency. Encouraging lenders to assess affordability based on a person’s full and current situation, rather than automatically excluding people because of minor or past credit history issues. Making it easier for older homeowners to unlock wealth built up in their property by updating affordability guidance for retirement interest-only mortgages. Updating rules on interest-only (or part interest-only) mortgages to give lenders more flexibility, while ensuring most borrowers have a clear plan to repay (unless they’re borrowing a smaller amount). David Geale, executive director for payments and digital finance, said:   ‘We’re living longer and how many people work has changed. Our mortgage rules need to keep pace so those who can afford to repay can borrow. Stronger protections mean we can now safely widen access to mortgage borrowing for those that may be underserved.’ The proposals are part of the FCA’s ongoing work to help consumers navigate their financial lives and support growth. In December 2025, it set out its plans to drive reforms to the mortgage market to better meet the needs of consumers today.  The FCA has raised standards across the mortgage market over time, including through the Consumer Duty. The proposals build on that foundation by rebalancing risk to help more people access mortgages while keeping appropriate safeguards in place, including supporting consumers in understanding their options. As part of gathering feedback on the proposals, the FCA is using an online tool to hear directly from consumers about their experiences of the mortgage market. Alongside feedback from firms and others, this will help make sure consumers’ voices help shape the FCA’s approach. The FCA is encouraging consumers, firms and all interested parties to respond to the consultation and share their views by 28 July 2026. Background Read the Consultation Paper, CP26/18: Mortgage Rule Review, Supporting first-time buyers and underserved consumers. The FCA’s 5-year strategy, published in 2025, aims to deepen trust, rebalance risk, support growth and improve lives. As part of this work, the FCA is reviewing mortgage rules to consider how to update its mortgage framework to support consumers in accessing the market. Despite the rise in interest rates and living costs, around 99% of mortgages taken out since 2014, when mortgage standards were tightened, are not in arrears. The FCA enables a fair and thriving financial services market for the good of consumers and the economy. Find out more about the FCA. 

The Global Legal Entity Identifier Foundation (GLEIF) and Global Energy Monitor (GEM) have completed the first certified mapping between GEM Entity ID and the Legal Entity Identifier (LEI), making it possible to trace the legal ownership of energy assets worldwide through standardized, openly accessible data. The first open mapping file will be published in June 2026, with integration into GLEIF’s API and LEI Search to follow. There are hundreds of thousands of energy assets globally – such as coal mines, combustion power plants, iron and steel plants, cement plants, oil extraction fields, and gas pipelines – which often have complex and opaque ownership arrangements. Consequently, it has proved difficult for organizations and regulators to fully assess exposure and risk. By increasing transparency of energy asset ownership, the mapping gives companies a direct way to meet climate-related reporting and due diligence requirements under frameworks such as the EU Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive (CSDDD). It also supports investor portfolio screening against verified ownership data and helps regulators cross-check reported ownership structures against authoritative open-source data. It also meets growing regulatory and market demand for high-quality, interoperable, open data that can be used consistently across markets and jurisdictions. This highlights the growing applicability of the Global LEI System as an internationally recognized and standardized organizational identity management infrastructure and global Digital Public Infrastructure (DPI), which connects with other uthoritative data sources to extend access to trusted information globally. Alexandre Kech, GLEIF CEO, said: “Directly linking real-world assets to the legal entities that own them is the only way to really understand the world’s energy system. Our collaboration with GEM shows how trusted organizational identity data is delivering immediate value to streamline compliance with climate-related disclosure and due diligence obligations, while demonstrating how the broad public good provided by the Global LEI System is being extended to promote greater transparency, openness and accountability throughout the global economy.” Anna Mowat, GEM Ownership Project Manager, comments: "We are committed to making reliable, high-quality energy data freely available to the world. Mapping our open datasets to the LEI furthers this mission, marking an important step forward that will enhance visibility, usability, and impact to help enable a sustainable future." GEM is the first Global Open Data Integration Network (GODIN) member from the energy sector to complete a mapping certification. Launched in 2025, GODIN is a GLEIF-led initiative that aims to enhance global data interoperability and accessibility by aligning open data sources to recognized global frameworks. This transforms siloed data into interoperable, actionable information that can be used across markets and jurisdictions. GLEIF’s free LEI Mapping Certification service is key to enabling this interoperability. It overcomes the fragmentation risks posed by a single legal entity being associated with multiple identifiers by linking existing identifiers to the globally recognized LEI. In addition to GEM, GLEIF has also certified mapping relationships between S&P CIQ Company ID, SWIFT’s Market Identifier Code (MIC) and Business Identifier Code (BIC), the Association of National Numbering Agencies’ (ANNA) International Securities Identification Numbers (ISIN), and Qichacha’s QCC Code.

Recognition enables FINMA-supervised Swiss financial institutions to gain direct access to DFM, and allows trading of equity securities of Swiss-incorporated companies on the market  Hamed Ali: “A significant milestone in our strategy is to broaden international access to our market and implement Dubai's vision to develop its capital markets”  As part of its ongoing efforts to broaden market accessibility for international investors, Dubai Financial Market (DFM) today announced that it has been granted recognition by the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority (FINMA) as a foreign trading venue.  The recognition spans two dimensions: it permits Swiss participants supervised by FINMA to gain direct access to DFM's trading venue, and it enables the trading of equity securities of companies incorporated in Switzerland on the market. Together, these establish a regulated channel between two of the world's leading financial centres, allowing Swiss financial institutions to connect directly to DFM and opening the door for Swiss-incorporated companies' shares to be traded in Dubai.  The recognition reflects the strength of DFM's regulatory framework, which operates under the supervision of the UAE Capital Market Authority (CMA), and the close cooperation between the UAE and Swiss regulators both signatories to the IOSCO Multilateral Memorandum of Understanding Concerning Consultation and Cooperation and the Exchange of Information.  DFM is home to a base of more than 1.2 million investors from 212 nationalities, with foreign investors representing approximately 85% of registered investors an international base the recognition is set to deepen by opening a direct, regulated route for Swiss institutions.  Commenting on the recognition, Hamed Ali, CEO of DFM and Nasdaq Dubai, said: “FINMA's recognition of DFM is a significant milestone in our strategy to broaden international access to our market and implement Dubai's vision to develop its capital markets. It opens a direct, regulated pathway for Swiss financial institutions to connect to our ecosystem and creates new opportunities around Swiss-incorporated securities, reinforcing Dubai's position as a globally connected capital-markets hub.”   H.E. Waleed Saeed Al Awadhi, CEO of the UAE Capital Market Authority (CMA), added: “This recognition reflects the close supervision cooperation between the CMA and FINMA and the strength of the UAE’s regulatory framework. It establishes a clear, well-regulated channel for cross-border participation that upholds market integrity and reinforces the UAE’s standing as a trusted global financial centre.”   The development advances DFM's strategy to deepen international investor participation and strengthen Dubai's standing as a gateway connecting regional and global capital markets, in line with the emirate's wider ambitions to grow its financial sector and attract cross-border capital flows.

​The European Banking Authority (EBA) today published a Discussion Paper which proposes a simplified process for small and non-complex institutions (SNCIs) when implementing the Pillar 3 Data Hub (P3DH). The objective is to gather stakeholder feedback on a streamlined approach under which the EBA would collect and perform the calculation and publication of Pillar 3 disclosures for SNCIs, thereby reducing the burden for the latter. ​The Discussion Paper outlines the proposed approach for SNCIs, including the methodology for calculating Pillar 3 disclosures on behalf of the institutions. This process is designed to reduce the operational burden currently borne by institutions in managing their own disclosure processes. By providing a single access point to Pillar 3 information, the P3DH is expected to significantly improve transparency, comparability, and accessibility of data for all users, including institutions and supervisors. The Discussion Paper also provides detailed information on the next steps and the expected timeline for the first publication of Pillar 3 information to SNCIs.  ​The EBA also published a new P3DH FAQ and related IT solutions addressed to large and other institutions. This FAQ provides clarification on IT solutions related to the nomination of contacts persons within institutions who will receive automatic notifications upon the publication of Pillar 3 information. ​ Consultation process Responses to the consultation can be submitted using the dedicated survey (EU Survey). Unless requested otherwise, all contributions received will be published after the consultation closes. The deadline for submitting comments is 20 July 2026, cob.  The EBA will hold a public hearing on 1 July 2026, 15:00 to 16:30 CEST. Please register here by 26 June 2026, 16:00 CEST.  Legal basis, background and next steps The P3DH is a centralised platform on the EBA website that facilitates the access to Pillar 3 information by all users, covering the full set of requirements under the Pillar 3 disclosure framework. On 26 January 2026, the P3DH went live for large and other institutions. A dedicated page to the P3DH is available on the EBA website, where related FAQs are published on a regular basis.  The EBA is now extending the P3DH framework to Small and Non-Complex Institutions (SNCIs). Under Article 434(4) of the Capital Requirements Regulation (CRR), the EBA is mandated to prepare and publish the Pillar 3 disclosures for these institutions based on supervisory reporting data submitted to competent authorities.  The classification of institutions as large, other or SNCI follows the definitions under Article 4 of the CRR (large institution under paragraph 1(146); small and non-complex institution under paragraph 1(145); other institution classification corresponds to those institutions that do not fall in any of the other two categories).
