CryptoSlate reports Canada’s 2027 rule will let banks offset qualifying crypto hedges across exchanges

CryptoSlate reports that Canada’s OSFI will let banks offset qualifying crypto hedges across regulated exchanges under a new 2027 capital rule, provided the asset and maturity match. The publisher describes the relief as limited to tightly matched, qualifying Group 2a positions. It says the change can reduce capital requirements for those positions, but high risk weights and the 5% Group 2 exposure cap remain.
