According to The Block, the Federal Reserve has released a Q&A document clarifying that banks should treat tokenized securities according to existing capital rules, emphasizing that the current framework is "technology neutral."

The Federal Reserve stated that the technology used to issue or transfer securities (including blockchain technology) will not affect its regulatory capital treatment, and eligible tokenized securities should be treated under the same rules as non-tokenized securities. Tokenized securities that meet the same legal and risk management requirements as traditional securities can be used as financial collateral. The Federal Reserve added that capital rules do not provide differential treatment regardless of whether a permissioned or permissionless chain is used. This move follows the SEC's clarification in January that tokenized securities must still comply with federal securities laws, providing further guidance from regulators on the application of traditional assets on-chain.
