This is FedReg Intel for October sixth, twenty twenty-six. The Securities and Exchange Commission has published a custody proposal covering crypto assets and other updates. Comments are due December seventh. This is a proposed rule, not a final requirement. Here is what to read before commenting.

The proposal addresses how regulated investment companies may hold crypto securities and similar investments, and how registered investment advisers may hold client crypto funds and securities. It also proposes changes to existing custody requirements, reporting, and recordkeeping. The SEC describes these as modernization measures. The release includes proposed changes to public disclosure forms and questions about tokenized funds and shares.

The Federal Register notice lists December seventh, twenty twenty-six as the comment deadline. Read the full proposal and its submission instructions at the link below.
