2. US policy changes, including broad-based tariffs, have disrupted markets, causing volatility and a depreciating US dollar despite rising bond yields.

4. Carstens emphasized the need for regulatory parity between banks and non-bank financial institutions (NBFIs) in light of digital innovation.
5. The BIS highlighted concerns over trade policy impacts and the entry of big tech into finance as key challenges.
