Ripple Prime will provide prime brokerage, clearing and financing services to funds managed by the $35 billion alternative investment manager. Ripple Prime will provide multi-asset prime brokerage, clearing and financing services to funds managed by Brevan Howard, a global investment manager with about $35 billion in assets. Under the expanded agreement, Brevan Howard will gain access to Ripple Prime’s services across traditional and digital asset markets, according to a Tuesday announcement. The deal builds on an existing relationship between the firms. Brevan Howard-affiliated funds participated in a $500 million investment in Ripple in 2025 that valued the company at $40 billion. “As digital and traditional markets become more interconnected, the need for institutional-quality digital asset infrastructure that enables a seamless experience for investors is only growing,” Brevan Howard chief operating officer Alan McGroarty said. The investment manager serves global clients including sovereign wealth funds, corporate and public pension plans, foundations and endowments. The agreement comes as Ripple expands its prime brokerage business. In August, Ripple Prime raised <a href="https://cointelegraph.com/news/ripple-raises-275m-us-prime-brokerage" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">$275 million through a senior note offering</a> to fund its expansion into prime brokerage, financing and multi-asset clearing. Ripple launched the business after acquiring prime broker Hidden Road for about $1.25 billion in 2025. <em><strong>Magazine: </strong></em><a href="https://" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"><em><strong>Too big to pause: Could an AI slowdown crash the economy?</strong></em></a>
EIA: Middle East supply remains constrained, U.S. diesel inventories stay persistently low
EIA: Middle East supply remains constrained, US diesel inventories stay persistently low. In its latest Short-Term Energy Outlook, the US Energy Information Administration (EIA) projects that although Middle East oil supply will remain constrained in the fourth quarter of 2026, the scale of September shutdowns has fallen to its lowest level since the conflict began. With increased escorted shipping through the Strait of Hormuz, rerouting, and ship-to-ship transfers, Middle East oil production and exports are expected to recover overall. The US diesel market remains relatively tight, with East Coast distillate inventories in September 32% below the five-year average for the same period, and they are expected to remain about 20% below that average this winter, only gradually approaching the five-year average in the second half of next year. The EIA forecasts that the average Henry Hub natural gas spot price in 2027 will be $3.16 per million British thermal units, down 9% year-on-year; average spending by US households heating with natural gas and propane is expected to decline this winter, while spending by households heating with heating oil is expected to increase by 21%.
