Morgan Stanley is expanding access to cryptocurrency investments for all clients, effective October 15, allowing them in various account types, including retirement accounts. Previously limited to high-net-worth clients, this change reflects the bank's ongoing adaptation to the evolving crypto landscape and the U.S. government's shifting stance on digital assets. Advisors will still be restricted to recommending specific bitcoin funds from BlackRock and Fidelity while monitoring client exposure to crypto investments.
