The Brookings Institution published a white paper titled, "Stablecoins After GENIUS: Private Money, Public Debt, and the Global Dollar," which gives an excellent overview of the stablecoin market. The Abstract says, "This paper examines privately issued U.S. dollar-backed stablecoins and the implications of their potential growth following passage of the GENIUS Act in July 2025. It evaluates USD stablecoins as a form of private digital money and how they can improve domestic and cross-border payments, support the global role of the dollar, and improve the U.S. fiscal position. The paper highlights three tradeoffs for policymakers. First, well-regulated stablecoins can address some inefficiencies and gaps in domestic and cross-border payments through advantages in cost, speed, and 24/7 availability.... But policymakers need to recognize that what makes stablecoins attractive for money and payments also can reduce protections for users, make them more attractive for illicit finance, and weaken the existing financial connections that give sanctions and anti-money-laundering enforcement their force."

Non-Centrally Cleared Bilateral Repo
The U.S. Treasury's OFR, or Office of Financial Research published "A Closer Look at the U.S. NCCBR Market," which reviews the non-centrally cleared bilateral repurchase agreement market. They write, "The U.S. non-centrally cleared bilateral repurchase agreement (NCCBR) market has $5 trillion in outstanding repos. This market is becoming more transparent to the public due to more data collection. The data show that this market segment has a distinctive mix of collateral and tenor. Compared to the cleared and tri-party segments, NCCBR is the only segment using foreign sovereign bonds ($1.3 trillion) and is the only segment that is predominantly term ($2.7 trillion). The clearing mandate may move $1.5 trillion of NCCBR into the cleared segment, assuming no changes in participant behavior, though most NCCBR will likely remain uncleared due to the use of open term, foreign collateral and the current affiliate exemption." The brief explains, "Non-centrally cleared bilateral repos (NCCBR) are repos that are settled without the use of a clearing house or settlement agency. While these utilities have benefits, such as netting and automation, the added costs and limitations are significant enough that many repos remain fully bilateral. Bilateral settlement allows parties to flexibly negotiate a repo's terms, collateral, currency, and haircuts to fit the needs of each deal. As a result, the NCCBR market accommodates a variety of repos, such as those with private sector or foreign collateral, with special terms like optionality, or with market participants that may not have access to clearing infrastructure and thus fill many niches in the financial system …
