A Fed approval like this is mostly a structural and supervisory signal rather than something that moves USD/CAD on the day. I'd look first at whether it changes dollar funding capacity or the bank's US balance sheet over time, since those flows matter more for cross-currency basis than the headline itself. Do you have a view on whether this is primarily about the US franchise or about the bank's broader funding setup?
