J.P. Morgan Chase & Co.’s retreat from a mundane but crucial settlement role in the $13 trillion U.S. Treasury market poses a fresh challenge for regulators seeking to bolster the market’s capacity to withstand shocks.
The New York bank’s decision, announced July 21 and due to be complete next year, leaves rival Bank of New York Mellon Corp. as the lone firm handling the settlement of U.S. government debt for big bond brokers.
Having just one firm in the business of making sure traders deliver cash and securities as expected will pose a fresh test for a sprawling market whose functioning has come under scrutiny since the financial crisis. Many analysts already worry that liquidity, the capacity to trade quickly without moving prices, has been falling when markets come under stress.
