Denmark increases parental leave for parents of hospitalized newborn children

Denmark is significantly increasing government-paid leave for parents of hospitalized newborn children from a combined total of three months for both parents to 12 months for each parent. This extension will also apply to “early homestays,” where medical treatment is provided at home instead of in hospital, rather than only to hospitalized cases. These changes will take effect from 1 January 2026 and apply to parents of children born or adopted on or after 1 January 2026.

GENIUS Act represents first step toward much-needed digital asset regulatory clarity in U.S.

For years, digital asset industry participants have pressed the federal government to establish a regulatory framework and provide the market with the clarity it needs to continue growing. This week, Congress took the first step toward delivering that clarity, passing a bill that reinforces requirements for permitted payment stablecoin issuers. The bill is just one piece in the broader U.S. digital asset regulatory puzzle that the industry hopes will soon be completed.
