[Basel Committee Chair Suggests Possible Adjustment to Crypto Asset Capital Rules] Erik Thedéen, Governor of Sweden's Central Bank and Chair of the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (BCBS), stated that the current policy of a 1250% risk weight for crypto assets may need to be adjusted. According to an analysis by global law firm White & Case, if the 1250% risk weight is maintained, banks would need to hold self-owned capital equivalent to their crypto asset exposure. Currently, crypto assets issued on permissionless chains (such as stablecoins like USDt and USDC) are classified under the same risk level as high-risk investments. Thedéen noted that the rapid growth of regulated stablecoins has altered the policy environment and emphasized the need for a swift analysis to determine whether a different approach should be taken for stablecoins.
