OCC Proposes Weekly & Quarterly Reporting Forms for Stablecoin Issuers Under GENIUS Act

The OCC is seeking public comment on proposed weekly and quarterly reporting forms that permitted payment stablecoin issuers and foreign stablecoin issuers registered with the OCC under the GENIUS Act will be required to complete. This is an early but critical step in the GENIUS Act supervisory framework, and stablecoin issuers operating under OCC jurisdiction need to understand their forthcoming reporting obligations. Comments are due within 60 days of Federal Register publication.

What to do

  • Review the proposed reporting forms, assess the operational and compliance burden of weekly and quarterly stablecoin reporting, and submit comments to the OCC within the 60-day comment window.

OCC Updates Cybersecurity Examination Work Program for Banks

The OCC has revised its Cybersecurity Supervision Work Program (CSW), which examiners use to assess cybersecurity risk at national banks and federal savings associations, updating its structure and references to reflect the evolving threat landscape and adoption of standardized frameworks. For compliance and risk officers at banks, neobanks, and trust companies under OCC supervision, this signals updated examiner expectations around cybersecurity controls and preparedness. Crypto custodians and fintechs with bank charters or partnerships should also take note, as vendor and third-party cybersecurity risk is often assessed through this lens.

CFTC Updates Whistleblower Award Rules for Greater Transparency

The CFTC is amending its whistleblower program rules to improve efficiency, transparency, and predictability of the claims process, modeled on similar SEC regulations. The amendments also reflect an internal reorganization moving the Whistleblower Office to the Office of General Counsel. Compliance officers at crypto and derivatives firms should be aware that a more streamlined whistleblower process may increase the likelihood of internal misconduct being reported externally to the CFTC.

OCC Joins Interagency Proposed Third-Party Risk Management Guidance

The OCC is co-issuing the same interagency third-party risk management proposal alongside the Fed, FDIC, and NCUA, signaling a unified supervisory approach across the federal banking agencies. National banks and federal savings associations should treat this as a near-certain indicator of forthcoming binding expectations on vendor oversight. The proposal's emphasis on risk-proportionate controls is particularly relevant for institutions using crypto or fintech service providers.

OCC/Fed/FDIC Raise Asset Threshold for 18-Month Exam Cycle to $6 Billion

An interim final rule from the OCC, Federal Reserve, and FDIC raises the total asset threshold that allows certain well-managed, well-capitalized insured depository institutions and U.S. branches of foreign banks to qualify for an extended 18-month on-site examination cycle. Smaller banks and trust companies that fall below the new threshold may see reduced examination frequency, affecting the pace of supervisory feedback on compliance programs. Fintech-partnered banks and crypto-custody trust companies under the threshold should be aware that less frequent exams do not reduce compliance obligations.
