Nasdaq Verafin and BioCatch today announced the formation of a strategic partnership to leverage their complementary technology solutions in the fight against payments fraud. The partnership aligns Nasdaq Verafin’s fraud detection platform and consortium data network with BioCatch’s behavioral and device intelligence to more effectively address the rapid growth in payments fraud around the world, one of the financial services industry’s biggest challenges. Financial crime is a multitrillion-dollar problem with devastating economic and societal impacts worldwide. Payments fraud and scams accounted for the majority of the estimated $486 billion in global fraud losses in 2023. As the adoption of faster and real-time payments continues to accelerate, so does the risk of fraud. At the same time, legacy approaches to fighting fraud are leading to an influx of false positive alerts that can overwhelm a bank’s investigative teams and add unnecessary friction to transactions. The initial phase of the partnership will include the integration of BioCatch alerts and insights into the Nasdaq Verafin platform. This integration will transform fraud prevention efforts, empowering financial institutions to take pre-emptive action against payments fraud, using both behavioral and transactional intelligence to halt fraudulent transactions before the funds leave a customer’s account. By bringing together these two powerful solutions, the partnership equips financial institutions with more holistic risk insights across the lifecycle of a transaction, eliminating signal-delivery silos and enabling teams to both evaluate risk and stop fraudulent transactions in real-time. The partnership will also include additional product integrations and co-developed fraud solutions, as well as joint research and thought leadership. “As criminal threats grow in scale and sophistication each day, the need for greater industry collaboration has never been more urgent. We are thrilled to partner with BioCatch to further enrich our existing solutions and improve our clients’ ability to fight scams and payments fraud,” said  Stephanie Champion, Nasdaq Executive Vice President and Head of Nasdaq Verafin. “This partnership showcases the power of two innovative organizations that have built exceptional, trusted networks. Together, we share a vision to leverage consortium data and behavioral insights as a force multiplier to create a true crime-fighting network that helps financial institutions act faster and better safeguard consumers from harm.” “The job of a fraud fighter is hard,” BioCatch CEO  Gadi Mazor said, “and it’s getting more difficult each day, as our criminal counterparts find new ways to socially engineer and scam bank customers. Our initial integration with Nasdaq Verafin promises to make the job of the fraud fighter immediately easier, giving them single-screen access to powerful, predictive behavioral and transactional fraud signals that enable real-time decisioning across sessions, users, and networks. This partnership underscores the need for a truly global, collaborative approach to fighting financial crime — one that changes the way financial institutions collaborate, protects account-to-account transfers, stops fraudulent payments, and eliminates the money laundering accounts that power financial crime syndicates.” Nasdaq Verafin's consortium data network is trusted by more than 2,600 financial institutions representing over $10 trillion in collective assets. By leveraging data from more than 725 million counterparties around the world, Nasdaq Verafin's consortium provides insights into fraud risk beyond a single institution's view. BioCatch’s financial crime prevention platform delivers real-time analysis of up to 3,000 unique behavioral and device-related datapoints – keystroke and mouse activity, touch screen behavior, physical device attributes, and more – as people interact with their digital banking platforms. With these inputs, BioCatch’s machine-learning models reveal patterns in user behavior, allowing banks to differentiate between the criminal and the legitimate, and to stop fraud before it happens. “This partnership represents a win-win by combining the scale of consortium analytics with the precision of behavioral and device intelligence, enabling a comprehensive defense against increasingly sophisticated fraud attacks,” said  Julie Conroy, Chief Insights Officer at Datos Insights. “Fraudsters are actively capitalizing on the immediacy of faster payments to commit faster fraud, and it’s imperative that financial organizations have the tools that enable them to move from reactive mode to proactive prevention to protect both their bottom line and consumer trust.” In the coming weeks, the companies will host a series of webinars to provide more information on the partnership, starting with the first on October 23, 2025. To learn more about the partnership and register for the webinar, please visit https://verafin.com/nasdaq-verafin-biocatch-partnership.

Staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) today issued a Joint Statement regarding the trading of certain spot crypto asset products. This Joint Statement clarifies staff’s views that SEC- and CFTC- registered exchanges are not prohibited from facilitating the trading of certain spot commodity products. The joint effort exemplifies how staff of the two agencies can coordinate to promote trading venue choice and optionality for market participants. “Today’s joint staff statement represents a significant step forward in bringing innovation in the crypto asset markets back to America,” said SEC Chairman Paul Atkins. “Market participants should have the freedom to choose where they trade spot crypto assets. The SEC is committed to working with the CFTC to ensure that our regulatory frameworks support innovation and competition in these rapidly evolving markets.” “Under the prior administration, our agencies sent mixed signals about regulation and compliance in digital asset markets, but the message was clear: innovation was not welcome. That chapter is over,” said CFTC Acting Chairman Caroline D. Pham. “By working together, we can empower American innovation in these markets and build on President Trump’s collaborative approach to making America the crypto capital of the world. Today’s joint agency statement is the latest demonstration of our mutual objective of supporting growth and development in these markets, but it will not be the last.” The SEC’s Division of Trading and Markets and the CFTC’s Division of Market Oversight and Division of Clearing and Risk (collectively, the “Divisions”) are coordinating efforts to facilitate the trading of certain spot crypto asset products on registered exchanges. This initiative is part of the SEC’s Project Crypto and the CFTC’s Crypto Sprint, and it builds on the recommendations of the President’s Working Group on Digital Asset Markets report on “Strengthening American Leadership in Digital Financial Technology.” The Divisions stand ready to engage with market participants and support consideration by their respective agencies of exchange trading in certain spot crypto asset products. Market participants are invited to engage with SEC staff or CFTC staff, as needed, to discuss any questions or concerns they may have. Resources Statement

MarketAxess Holdings Inc. (Nasdaq: MKTX), the operator of a leading electronic trading platform for fixed-income securities, today announced that Chris Concannon, Chief Executive Officer, and Ilene Fiszel Bieler, Chief Financial Officer, will participate in the Barclays Global Financial Services Conference on September 9, 2025. Mr. Concannon and Ms. Fiszel Bieler will participate in a fireside chat at 12:00 p.m. ET. The live webcast and replay for the fireside chat will be available on the events and presentations section of the MarketAxess Investor Relations homepage, https://investor.marketaxess.com/events-and-presentations.

Introduction The SEC’s Division of Trading and Markets and the CFTC’s Division of Market Oversight and Division of Clearing and Risk (collectively, the “Divisions”)[1] are announcing a cross-agency initiative in furtherance of the SEC’s Project Crypto and the CFTC’s Crypto Sprint to coordinate efforts regarding the process for enabling the trading of certain spot crypto asset products. The President’s Working Group on Digital Asset Markets report on “Strengthening American Leadership in Digital Financial Technology” (the “PWG Report”) recommends that the SEC and CFTC coordinate to make America the best place in the world to innovate with blockchain technology and participate in crypto asset markets.[2] Specifically, the PWG Report recommends that the agencies should use their existing authorities to promote “regulatory clarity that best keeps blockchain-based innovation within the United States.” As part of this effort, the Divisions are coordinating to issue guidance “regarding the listing of leveraged, margined, or financed spot retail commodity transactions on digital assets” to implement the PWG Report recommendations. This joint statement provides the Divisions’ view that current law does not prohibit SEC- or CFTC-registered exchanges from facilitating trading of these spot crypto asset products. As contemplated by the PWG Report, the Divisions’ coordination will promote trading venue choice and optionality for market participants within the United States. In line with these goals, the Divisions stand ready to support consideration by their respective agencies of exchange trading in certain spot crypto asset products. Spot Commodity Products Absent an exception or other appropriate relief, the Commodity Exchange Act (CEA) requires that certain leveraged, margined, or financed “retail commodity transactions”[3] be conducted on a CFTC-registered designated contract market (DCM) or on a CFTC-registered foreign board of trade (FBOT).[4] One such exception is for retail commodity transactions listed on an SEC-registered national securities exchange (NSE).[5] Today, the Divisions provide their view that DCMs, FBOTs, and NSEs are not prohibited from facilitating the trading of certain spot crypto asset products. Market participants are invited to engage with SEC staff or CFTC staff, as needed. Considerations for Market Participants The Divisions will promptly review filings and requests by DCMs, FBOTs, and NSEs seeking to facilitate trading of certain spot crypto asset products. As market participants prepare to submit any necessary registrations, proposals, or requests for appropriate relief to the SEC and/or CFTC, the Divisions stand ready to engage regarding any questions. The following considerations are relevant to market participants seeking to operate markets and trade spot crypto asset products: Margin, Clearing, and Settlement: In the Divisions’ view, applicable rules permit clearinghouses to partner with a custodian to maintain customer accounts.  The SEC’s Division of Trading and Markets stands ready to address questions from SEC-registered clearing agencies that wish to participate. The CFTC’s Division of Clearing and Risk stands ready to address questions from CFTC-registered derivatives clearing organizations (DCOs).  The Divisions stand ready to address any regulatory questions associated with commercial relationships between DCOs and NSEs. Monitoring of Underlying Markets: In the Divisions’ view, sharing of reference pricing venues by NSEs, DCMs, and FBOTs enhances effective market surveillance. The Divisions stand ready to assist with any questions that arise related to effective information sharing. Public Dissemination of Trade Data: In the Divisions’ view, public dissemination of transactions by NSEs and DCMs provides the public with valuable data. The Divisions stand ready to consider any questions that arise about making spot crypto asset market data from NSEs and DCMs publicly available. Promoting Fair and Orderly Markets: In the Divisions’ view, efficient executions and transparency promote trading opportunities and competition among market participants. The Divisions are prepared to engage with trading venues about applying fair and orderly market principles as they seek to operate markets for participants to trade spot crypto asset products. Innovation with Investor and Customer Protections: The Divisions stand ready to work with market participants to encourage technological innovations in markets and trading while ensuring investor and customer protections.

The semi-annual review of Austrian indices by the Index Committee has resulted in a change of the composition of the ATX. STRABAG SE and PORR AG have been added to Austria's benchmark index, replacing Telekom Austria AG and Mayr-Melnhof Karton AG. The composition of the ATX is based on two key criteria: the average daily turnover on the stock exchange (liquidity) and free float capitalisation of the company. PORR AG's inclusion in the ATX is accompanied by an increase in the free float factor from 0.5 to 0.6. Palfinger AG will also see an increase in its free float factor from 0.4 to 0.5. The free float factor indicates how many shares of a company are freely tradable – holdings of less than 4% are considered free float. The higher the factor, the greater the weight of the share in the index. All changes will take effect on 22 September. The next scheduled review of the composition of Austrian indices will take place in March 2026, the free float factors will be reviewed again in December 2025. The ATX calculation is based on a purely quantitative methodology that is laid down in a set of rules. In accordance with the "The Rules for the Austrian Indices of the Vienna Stock Exchange", the Vienna Stock Exchange may add or remove companies after the semi-annual review (March and September). The calculation parameters (number of shares, free float factors and representation factors) are reviewed on a quarterly basis (March, June, September and December). Once a month, the Vienna Stock Exchange publishes the "ATX watchlist", which shows the ranking of stocks according to liquidity and capitalised free float. Institutional investors, trading members, issuers of financial products, academics and the Vienna Stock Exchange contribute their expertise to the Index Committee, which decides on the rules governing the indices.

On September 1, 2025, a new statutory framework and related Ontario Securities Commission (OSC) Rules came into force to facilitate the distribution of funds collected under disgorgement orders to investors who have been directly harmed. This follows the announcement of the new framework by the OSC in June 2025. Disgorgement is a monetary sanction imposed by the Capital Markets Tribunal or the Ontario Superior Court of Justice. It requires respondents to pay amounts obtained through non-compliance with Ontario securities law or commodity futures law to the OSC. To support this new framework, the OSC has launched a dedicated section on its website. This new resource provides information about the distribution process and allows investors to: View new disgorgement orders Register to receive updates about potential future distributions Track amounts collected under each order Access details about any related distribution process and how to submit a claim Under the new framework, information about each disgorgement order, including the amounts collected, will be posted on the OSC website. Investors who were directly harmed by the conduct that resulted in the order can register their contact information to be notified of any future distribution of collected amounts. This initiative aligns the OSC with other Canadian and international regulators that have implemented similar frameworks to return funds to harmed investors. The mandate of the OSC is to provide protection to investors from unfair, improper or fraudulent practices, to foster fair, efficient and competitive capital markets, and confidence in the capital markets, to foster capital formation, and to contribute to the stability of the financial system and the reduction of systemic risk. Investors are urged to check the registration of any persons or company offering an investment opportunity and to review the OSC investor materials available at https://www.osc.ca.

TASE announces today the selection of two leading financial entities – Meitav Market Making and Migdal Market Making as designated market makers for Bank Mizrahi Tefahot share. This follows Bank Mizrahi Tefahot recent entry into the TASE's innovative tailor-made market making program in August, which allows public companies to choose a dedicated market-making model suited to their specific needs. With an average daily volume of close to NIS 111 million over the last 90 days, Bank Mizrahi Tefahot's shares are highly liquid. The adoption of this program is aimed at generating value and providing enhanced tools for both local and international investors in the share, as well as reducing the cost of acquiring the share on TASE. This will be achieved by increasing quoted volumes in the order book and narrowing bid-ask spreads, particularly for larger quantities, beyond current levels. The two financial entities appointed as market makers will be required to continuously quote every day in Bank Mizrahi Tefahot order book, maintaining a minimum volume of NIS 400 thousand and a maximum spread of 0.25%. These parameters are expected to significantly enhance current liquidity levels, reduce transaction costs for investors, and increase the attractiveness of the share for both institutional and international players. Bank Mizrahi Tefahot tailor-made market making program will be managed by TASE in full coordination with the bank in accordance with mutually agreed targets.   The program is set to commence on September 7, 2025, and will run for one year.

Month-over-month sales were relatively unchanged despite an increase in foot traffic (+1.4%). Average ticket sizes fell (-1.5%) compared to July, driven by consumers prioritizing value-driven purchases. “August saw consumers continue to show up to small businesses, but often spending less at checkout compared to July,” said Prasanna Dhore, Chief Data Officer. “This shift to budget-conscious decisions was prevalent in restaurants, as consumers opted for fast and affordable options when dining out. In other industries such as wholesale trade, where macroeconomic pressure is pushing ticket sizes higher, foot-traffic is declining.” Key Takeaways Quick Service Sales Surge for Restaurants – Restaurant sales grew (+2.1%) month over month, fueled by rising foot traffic (+1.8%). Year-over-year sales growth at restaurants was +2.2% and foot traffic grew +3.4%. These gains were almost entirely from quick service restaurant (QSR) growth (+8.3% year over year) as consumers favored wallet-friendly dining options. Retail Delivers Growth, but Inflation Drags – Retail sales (+1.1%) and foot traffic (+0.9%) were steady month over month, and all retail subsectors grew sales compared to July except Health & Personal Care. But inflation-adjusted sales fell (-1.4%) year-over-year, continuing a contracting trend in retail that began in April. Wholesale Trade Delivered Fewer Transactions but Bigger Tickets – Wholesale sales slipped (-0.3%) month-over-month as transactions dropped (-2.5%) and average tickets rose (+2.3%). Year-over-year sales growth (+3.1%) was driven by rising ticket size (+5.8%), which could be a sign of tariff-related pressure. Transactions fell (-2.7%) year-over-year, reinforcing the pullback. Discretionary vs. Essential – Discretionary spending rose (+1.2%) month-over-month led by QSR and budget-friendly entertainment. Essentials fell (-1.5%) month over month, suggesting consumers were reallocating spend over the short term as summer neared its end. Compared to 2024, Essentials rose (+5.9%) – nearly triple the growth of Discretionary (+2.0%). Goods vs. Services: Short-Term Shift, Long-Term Strength – Month-over-month sales shifted toward Goods (+0.6%), while Services slipped (-0.5%). Groceries, Gasoline, and Clothing led Goods growth, while Professional Services and small contractor services saw pullbacks. Year over year, Services sales growth (+4.8%) outpaced Goods (+2.0%).
