Future of Finance
Selected by the U.S. Treasury as financial agent for Trump Accounts, BNY is helping power a landmark initiative designed to support long-term saving and investing for the next generation. Built on institutional scale, expertise and trusted infrastructure, the program reflects BNY’s role in enabling future-focused financial innovation.
Outlook
In our annual outlook, investment and market leaders across BNY tackle six key questions we believe will define the year ahead.

Energy inflation is no longer just a crude oil story. Crude oil prices have been volatile and elevated since the onset of the Middle East conflict, raising concerns that higher oil prices could keep inflation elevated for longer. But recent moves in energy markets suggest the inflation risk extends beyond crude oil.
Article | Fixed Income
Long-dated U.S. Treasury yields are in the spotlight following recent Treasury intervention. In our view, the recent rise in yields reflects underlying supply and demand dynamics, rather than concerns about U.S. solvency. Meanwhile, recent market repricing may create opportunities for active investors, especially at the front end of the curve.
