AGP Executive Report

Last update: 8 hours ago

Central Banking Watch: Qatar Central Bank’s 2025 annual report says it kept confidence in the peg, cut key rates by 75 bps, and boosted reserves to QAR 202.2bn while expanding stress testing to protect capital and liquidity buffers. Crypto Policy & Markets: Bitcoin surged above $70,000 after Trump urged Congress to pass the CLARITY Act and after Treasury signaled larger long-dated bond buybacks; the rally also lifted major tokens and crypto-linked equities, while prediction markets still price only a small chance of $100k this month. SEC Regulatory Push: The SEC proposed a crypto fundraising framework with exemptions up to $75m per year and a conditional safe harbor aimed at clarifying when certain crypto offerings avoid securities registration. Fintech & Payments: India’s MeitY is integrating PulsePro into PM GatiShakti for planners, while Optimized Payments is running its second Women in Payments luncheon ahead of the MAG Payments Conference. Cybersecurity: Australia’s ASIC shut down 3,106 crypto scams, and the U.S. and others flagged AI-themed malware bait; Qatar and other regulators also urged faster patching and stronger controls. Corporate Finance: Freedom Holding reported 40% higher Q1 net income, and Brazil’s Nubank/Pix pressure is reshaping competitive dynamics for big banks.
