Why it may matterVerify against the original reporting
The combination of marquee issuers (Baillie Gifford, BlackRock), a large servicing base, and a real-money move into tokenized funds enhances revenue upside from asset servicing fees and cross-sell opportunities. The strategic edge could attract additional clients and accelerate growth in BNY's digital assets stack, though execution and regulatory risk temper near-term moves.
