Morgan Stanley CEO Ted Pick recently stated that the bank will collaborate with U.S. regulators to explore its potential involvement in cryptocurrency markets. Pick emphasized that the focus is on determining if the bank, as a highly regulated institution, can safely engage in digital currency transactions. He highlighted the bank’s intention to work with the Treasury and other regulators to ensure secure participation in the crypto space. Morgan Stanley has been a pioneer in crypto within wealth management, offering bitcoin funds and ETFs to wealthy clients.
