“The runs on prime money funds and commercial paper were particularly disappointing,” Fed Vice Chairman of Supervision Randal Quarles said in prepared remarks for a Thursday speech. He added that “it is worth asking whether there may be other steps needed to secure these very important sources of liquidity.”
