Out Of The Gray Zone: Statement On The Division Of Investment Management’s No-Action Letter Relating To The Custody Of Crypto Assets With State Trust Companies, SEC Commissioner Hester M. Peirce, Sept. 30, 2025
Date 30/09/2025
Today, the staff of the Division of Investment Management issued a no-action letter (the “NAL”) stating that it would not recommend enforcement action to the Commission against registered advisers or regulated funds for maintaining crypto assets and related cash and cash equivalents with certain state-chartered financial institutions (“State Trust Companies”). For too long, registered advisers and regulated funds have been caught up in a guessing game as to whether their entity of choice for crypto asset custody, which also may be the only available custodian for such service, is a permissible custodian under the custody provisions of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 (the “Advisers Act”) and Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”), respectively. The specific lingering question has been whether State Trust Companies meet the definition of a “bank” as defined in the Advisers Act and 1940 Act. The staff NAL is an encouraging development for registered advisers and regulated funds that invest or want to invest in crypto assets.

Cultivating Confidence: The Role Of Custody In Institutional Confidence – Public Trust And Oversight, SEC Commissioner Hester M. Peirce, Digital Assets Summit, Singapore, Sept. 30, 2025
Date 30/09/2025
Thank you to the Digital Assets Association for organizing this event and inviting me to participate. My views are my own as a Commissioner and not necessarily those of the SEC or my fellow Commissioners. I am appearing in digital form, which might be appropriate in light of today’s discussions on the tokenization of real-world assets. Had I been with you in person in Singapore, I would have urged you to join me in visiting the famous National Orchid Garden. I have an affinity for orchids because I managed to keep one alive for nearly fifteen years—an amazing feat given my complete lack of gardening skills. Plants that friends have entrusted to my care have not enjoyed similar good health. I have plucked good garden plants thinking they were weeds, inadequately shielded a prized pepper plant from the scorching sun, and under- or overwatered formerly flourishing trees. I am not a good custodian of plants, which brings me to today’s topic—crypto custody.
