Treasury Launches Cybersecurity Information Sharing Initiative for the Digital Asset Industry

U.S. Department of the Treasury Office of Public Affairs Press Release: April 9 , 2026 Contact: Treasury Public Affairs, Press@treasury.gov Treasury Launches Cybersecurity Information Sharing Initiative for the Digital Asset Industry WASHINGTON – Today, the U.S. Department of the Treasury’s Office of Cybersecurity and Critical Infrastructure Protection (OCCIP) announced a new initiative to strengthen cybersecurity across the digital asset industry. The initiative will provide timely, actionable cybersecurity information to eligible U.S. digital asset firms and industry organizations, helping them better identify, prevent, and respond to cyber threats targeting their customers and networks. The effort advances a key recommendation from the President’s Working Group on Digital Asset Markets report, Strengthening American Leadership in Digital Financial Technology . Treasury leadership highlights the growing importance of digital asset firms to the broader financial system. “Digital asset firms are an increasingly important part of the U.S. financial sector, and their resilience is critical to the health of the broader system,” said Luke Pettit, Assistant Secretary for Financial Institutions. “By extending access to the same high-quality cybersecurity information used by traditional financial institutions, Treasury is helping promote a more secure and responsible digital asset ecosystem.” Treasury also emphasized that cybersecurity is foundational to the future of digital finance and essential to responsible innovation. “This initiative reflects the principles of the GENIUS Act by promoting responsible innovation grounded in strong cybersecurity and operational resilience,” said Tyler Williams, Counselor to the Secretary for Digital Assets. “As digital assets become more integrated into the financial system, access to timely and actionable cyber threat information is essential to protecting consumers and safeguarding the stability of U.S. financial markets.” Treasury cybersecurity officials noted that the initiative responds directly to a rapidly evolving threat environment. “Cyber threats targeting digital asset platforms are growing in frequency and sophistication,” said Cory Wilson, Deputy Assistant Secretary for Cybersecurity. “This initiative expands access to actionable threat information that helps firms strengthen defenses, reduce risk, and respond more effectively to incidents.” Eligible U.S. digital asset firms and industry organizations that meet Treasury’s criteria will be able to receive, at no cost, the same actionable cybersecurity information Treasury regularly shares with traditional U.S. financial institutions. Interested firms are encouraged to contact OCCIP at OCCIP-Coord@treasury.gov for more information. ###

Treasury Proposes Rule to Implement the GENIUS Act’s Requirements to Counter Illicit Finance

U.S. Department of the Treasury Office of Public Affairs Press Release: April 8 , 2026 Contact: Treasury Public Affairs, Press@treasury.gov Treasury Proposes Rule to Implement the GENIUS Act’s Requirements to Counter Illicit Finance Promotes American Leadership in Payment Stablecoins WASHINGTON —Today, the U.S. Department of the Treasury’s Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) and the Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) issued a joint proposed rule to implement provisions of the Guiding and Establishing National Innovation for U.S. Stablecoins Act (GENIUS Act). The proposed rule, which implements the GENIUS Act’s anti-money laundering and sanctions compliance program requirements, encourages innovation in payment stablecoins while providing an appropriately tailored regime to mitigate potential illicit finance risks. “President Trump is strengthening American leadership in digital financial technology,” said Secretary of the Treasury Scott Bessent . “This proposal will protect the U.S. financial system from national security threats without hindering American companies’ ability to forge ahead in the payment stablecoin ecosystem.” The GENIUS Act provides a framework for the federal regulation of payment stablecoins. The law directs Treasury to issue regulations that would treat permitted payment stablecoin issuers (PPSIs) as financial institutions for purposes of the Bank Secrecy Act (BSA) and impose anti-money laundering obligations on PPSIs. The GENIUS Act also mandates that PPSIs maintain an effective sanctions compliance program and directs Treasury to issue appropriate regulations implementing such obligations. The proposed rule would subject PPSIs to requirements applicable to financial institutions relating to prevention of money laundering and impose obligations specified in the GENIUS Act. Consistent with FinCEN’s efforts to modernize BSA requirements, the proposed obligations are designed to be fit for purpose, assist law enforcement, and minimize unnecessary burden. The proposed rule would require PPSIs to adopt and maintain an effective sanctions compliance program as required by the GENIUS Act. Read more about the proposed rule here . FinCEN and OFAC welcome public comments on the proposal, which will be published in the Federal Register in the coming days.

U.S.-UK Financial Regulatory Working Group Winter 2026: Joint Statement

U.S. Department of the Treasury Office of Public Affairs Press Release: April 8 , 2026 Contact: Treasury Public Affairs, Press@treasury.gov U.S.-UK Financial Regulatory Working Group Winter 2026: Joint Statement The 12th official meeting of the U.S.-UK Financial Regulatory Working Group (Working Group) was hosted by the U.S. Department of the Treasury in Washington, DC on February 25, 2026. Senior officials from the U.S. Treasury and His Majesty’s (HM) Treasury were joined by representatives from the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, Commodity Futures Trading Commission, Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, Securities and Exchange Commission, Bank of England, and Financial Conduct Authority. Participation varied across themes, with participants expressing views on issues in their organizations’ respective areas of responsibility. The Working Group emphasized close, ongoing U.S. and UK cooperation and focused on several key themes, including: 1) the economic and financial stability outlook, 2) the Transatlantic Taskforce for Markets of the Future (TTMF), 3) digital finance and innovation, and 4) regulatory modernization and developments. The meeting opened with a broad discussion of the U.S. and UK economic and financial stability outlooks, with participants taking stock of current economic trends and market conditions. Both U.S. Treasury and HM Treasury emphasized facilitating economic growth and cross-border activity, while also modernizing regulation and protecting financial stability. Participants received a progress report on the work of the TTMF, including a readout of a joint industry roundtable hosted in Washington, DC the prior day. During this TTMF engagement, U.S. Treasury hosted representatives from HM Treasury, and U.S. and UK regulatory agencies, for a second round of industry engagement exploring opportunities to improve links between our capital markets and to collaborate on digital assets. The TTMF aims to report back to both Treasuries with recommendations via the Working Group in summer 2026. Participants discussed issues related to digital finance and innovation, noting broad support for promoting the use and growth of digital assets and digital financial innovation globally. Authorities discussed their respective priorities for digital assets and provided updates on the progress of regulation in both jurisdictions, including to support the adoption of stablecoins for payments. UK participants also provided an update about their Digital Securities Sandbox, and the Working Group discussed potential opportunities to support cross-border innovation. Participants emphasized the importance of continued bilateral engagement on digital assets developments in their respective jurisdictions. Participants also shared recent developments in their respective work on payments modernization. Representatives exchanged views on their respective approaches to artificial intelligence (AI) and both current and future uses of AI in financial services. U.S. and UK authorities discussed ways to work together, to realize the potential of this technology and mitigate the potential risks of AI in financial services. The Working Group discussed approaches to cybersecurity and operational resilience for supervised institutions and their use of critical third parties, including opportunities for authorities’ further engagement. Participants continued discussions about the importance of working with industry to improve the resilience of the financial sector. The Working Group continued with a discussion of developments in non-bank financial intermediation (NBFI), with participants providing updates on their respective domestic agendas and support for continued international engagement on this topic. Participants also offered an overview of developments in their domestic banking systems and banking regulation. Participants conferred on the investment environment, including capital markets regulation. HM Treasury set out the UK government’s program of reforms to reinvigorate capital markets, including its commitment to move to a T+1 settlement cycle in October 2027. The Working Group plans to formally reconvene in summer 2026 to continue its ongoing biannual dialogue, first established in 2018 to deepen bilateral regulatory cooperation between the UK and the U.S. and to enhance robust economic growth; financial stability; investor protection; fair, orderly, and efficient markets; and capital formation across both jurisdictions. ###

Treasury Targets Fraud Schemes Exploiting Government Health Care Benefits

U.S. Department of the Treasury Office of Public Affairs Press Release: March 30, 2026 Contact: Treasury Public Affairs, Press@treasury.gov Treasury Targets Fraud Schemes Exploiting Government Health Care Benefits Separately Announces Framework to Pay Whistleblowers for Tips WASHINGTON — Today, in support of President Trump’s pledge to combat fraud, the U.S. Department of the Treasury’s Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) issued an Advisory urging financial institutions to be vigilant about fraud schemes targeting government health care benefit programs such as Medicare and Medicaid. This follows Secretary of the Treasury Scott Bessent’s trip to Minnesota earlier this year, where he announced numerous steps that Treasury is implementing to detect and stop government benefits fraud across the country. Separately today, FinCEN issued a proposed rule paving the way to pay whistleblowers for actionable tips, further protecting the U.S. financial system from illicit activity. “President Trump has been clear that Americans have a right to know that their tax dollars are not being used to commit fraud,” said Secretary of the Treasury Scott Bessent . “Under President Trump’s leadership, Treasury will continue to find and disrupt fraud schemes wherever they exist, and we will work with our law enforcement partners to hold perpetrators to account.” FinCEN’s Advisory provides financial institutions with an overview of how fraudsters, organized crime groups, and increasingly, transnational criminal organizations (TCOs), are targeting government health care benefit programs. It also highlights money laundering typologies and red flag indicators to help financial institutions identify and report suspicious activity. Today’s Advisory strongly encourages financial institutions to voluntarily report suspicious activity to FinCEN and immediately notify law enforcement of such activity. Financial institutions filed 20% more suspicious activity reports related to health care in 2025 than in 2024, after President Trump pledged to eliminate fraud nationwide, helping to raise national attention. This reporting, however, likely represents only a small fraction of the illicit activity connected to health care fraud in the United States. EXPOSING HOW TRANSNATIONAL CRIMINAL ORGANIZATIONS EXECUTE HEALTH CARE FRAUD FinCEN’s Advisory highlights how TCOs exploit Federal and state health care benefit programs through complex schemes that file false and fraudulent claims for reimbursement, including nonexistent, exploitative, substandard, or unnecessary medical care. As part of these schemes, the TCOs send non-resident aliens into the United States to serve as straw owners of recently established or purchased health care providers or suppliers registered with Federal or state health care benefit programs. The TCOs illicitly obtain the names and identification numbers of beneficiaries enrolled in these programs, using that information to file false and fraudulent claims for reimbursement. This is often facilitated through kickbacks and bribes to complicit medical professionals. Once the claims are paid to the bank accounts owned by the shell companies, the TCOs launder the ill-gotten reimbursements through the U.S. and international financial systems via wire transfers, digital assets, and other money laundering typologies—including the use of complicit insiders at financial institutions—ultimately for their personal enrichment abroad. Combating fraud, including health care and government benefits fraud, is one of FinCEN’s Anti-Money Laundering and Countering the Financing of Terrorism (AML/CFT) National Priorities . This Advisory supports the Trump Administration’s whole-of-government effort to combat fraud, waste, and abuse involving Federal payments pursuant to Executive Order 14249 . The Advisory was issued in close coordination with the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and U.S. Department of Health and Human Services – Office of Inspector General (HHS-OIG). FINCEN UNVEILS PLAN TO COMPENSATE WHISTLEBLOWERS IN FIGHT AGAINST FINANCIAL CRIME As Secretary Bessent announced in Minnesota, Treasury will pay eligible whistleblowers for actionable tips related to fraud, money laundering, sanctions violations, and certain other national security laws. Today, FinCEN issued a proposed rule to fully implement its whistleblower program, strengthening efforts to protect the U.S. financial system from illicit activity. The rule proposes procedures for whistleblowers to provide information to FinCEN about potential violations. It also sets forth eligibility criteria for issuing awards and adjudicating award applications, as well as protections for whistleblowers that provide information to FinCEN. Awards to eligible whistleblowers will range from 10 to 30 percent of monetary penalties resulting from qualifying enforcement actions. Payments will be funded by penalties collected under the Bank Secrecy Act and the International Emergency Economic Powers Act from actions brought by Treasury and the Department of Justice. More information regarding FinCEN’s proposed rule can be found here . REPORTING HEALTH CARE FRAUD: HOW TO SUBMIT A TIP In February, FinCEN launched a new dedicated webpage to confidentially accept whistleblower tips on fraud, money laundering, and sanctions violations. Financial institutions and the public are encouraged to report any tips or complaints about potential fraud, waste, abuse, and mismanagement involving HHS programs to HHS-OIG . Victims of cyber-enabled health care fraud schemes should file a complaint with the FBI’s Internet Crime Complaint Center or file a report with their nearest FBI field office . Questions regarding the contents of this Advisory should be sent to the FinCEN Regulatory Support Section by submitting an inquiry at www.fincen.gov/contact. The full Advisory on Health Care Fraud Schemes Targeting Medicare, Medicaid, and Other Federal and State Health Care Benefit Programs is available at FIN-2026-A001 . ###

Remarks on A Reset on Liquidity Regulation

U.S. Department of the Treasury Office of Public Affairs Press Rel ease: March 3, 2026 Contact: Treasury Public Affairs, Press@Treasury.gov A Reset on Liquidity Regulation As Prepared By: Secretary Scott Bessent As Delivered By: Under Secretary for Domestic Finance Jonathan McKernan The Regulatory Reset Good afternoon, it is great to be here. Let me begin by thanking Hal Scott for convening this roundtable on bank liquidity and the lender of last resort. Under President Trump’s leadership, the Treasury Department has coordinated a fundamental reset of financial regulation. And the regulators have certainly not wasted time. They have ended decades of regulation by reflex and rolled back the Biden administration’s regulatory excesses. They have tackled the problem of “too small to succeed” and affirmed a commitment to preserving the community bank model. They have refocused bank supervision on material financial risk. They have recommitted to regulatory tailoring. They are clearing the way for digital assets and other responsible innovation. And very soon, they will propose a modernization of bank capital that simplifies and rationalizes the framework, ends the capital arbitrage that drives financial activity to nonbanks, and ensures competitive parity for smaller banks. Bank liquidity is the next big-ticket item. This roundtable is on a critically important topic with immediate real-world implications for this historic time. Artificial intelligence is no longer science fiction. The onshoring of American manufacturing is no longer aspirational. The competition for critical minerals is no longer abstract. To unlock the vast promise of this transformation and secure America’s Golden Age, we confront the pressing necessity of unlocking hundreds of billions—potentially trillions—in new lending capacity to finance AI infrastructure, domestic supply chains, and the defense industrial base. The problem, however, and the reason this roundtable is timely, is that the framework for supervising and regulating bank liquidity created in response to the 2008 financial crisis has excessively and unnecessarily limited banks’ ability to do what they are supposed to do—lend. The debate on bank liquidity goes directly to whether we will have a financial system that supports growth and economic security—or quietly stifles it under the guise of prudence. Which is all to say, liquidity regulation [1] is an area of steady and serious focus for the Treasury Department. The Case for a Fresh Look During the 2008 crisis, liquidity evaporated suddenly. Wholesale funding froze. Fire sales impaired balance sheets across the system. Governments and central banks were compelled to step in. The legitimacy of the financial system and our institutions generally came into question. Post-crisis liquidity regulation has succeeded in reducing the likelihood of a redux of 2008. But its genesis also gives us cause for a fresh look. Liquidity regulation was novel and even muddled guesswork, an inevitable overcorrection written in the dark shadow of the crisis. On this first point, liquidity had historically been the province of supervision, not formula. There was simply no precedent for prescribing numerical liquidity buffers in rule. There also was no settled conceptual framework for calibrating those numerical requirements, as even then-Governor Tarullo recognized. [2] Capital regulation rests on a calibration framework for assigning exposure-specific requirements. The architects of liquidity regulation, in contrast, assigned inflow and outflow rates based on historical experience and intuition. Call it two parts data, one part gut, and a heavy dash of post-crisis trauma. Another reason for a fresh look is that things have changed considerably since. The speed at which liquidity stress can be triggered and transmitted—already fast in 2008—has only accelerated, as we saw in March 2023. After March 2023, almost everyone now agrees that operational readiness and discount window stigma need a better solution. SVB, Signature, and First Republic each had substantial holdings of Treasuries and agency MBS. But that liquidity existed only on paper. Collateral was not fully prepositioned. Discount window access was untested. That was in part because the policymakers who had designed the framework were so keenly focused on reducing dependence on the lender of last resort so as to mitigate moral hazard. [3] Then reality intervened in March 2023. Now, the conversation is about reducing discount window stigma, incentivizing collateral prepositioning, and normalizing routine testing of central bank facilities. The upshot is that we should not treat post-crisis liquidity regulation as somehow sacrosanct. These rules are working drafts, not tablets handed down from the mountain. With the benefit of some distance from the crisis, it is time for a fresh look. Re-assessing the Costs and Benefits Shifting then to the costs and benefits. At its core, liquidity regulation necessarily draws a line: to what extent should banks self-insure liquidity risk, and how much of that risk should be borne by the lender of last resort? Requiring banks to fully self-insure even severe liquidity risk comes at a steep cost. When 25 percent of large banks’ balance sheets are allocated to safe assets—up from roughly 10 percent before the crisis—that necessarily means less lending for mortgages, small businesses, AI hyperscalers, and critical infrastructure. Those costs must be balanced against the benefits. To foster resiliency, we should guard against the run risks posed by excessive reliance on short-term wholesale funding. That lesson from 2008 remains intact. Liquidity regulation should also support orderly resolution. As SVB’s Thursday turmoil reminds us, buffers buy time—ideally until the Friday close—so that authorities can arrange a sale or otherwise implement an orderly wind-down. Liquidity regulation also should enhance operational readiness for stress. In particular, banks should be encouraged to preposition collateral and test central bank facilities. Given these objectives, one clear shortcoming is that banks generally have proven unwilling to draw down buffers during stress periods. The architects of liquidity regulation were explicit that buffer useability was critical to achieving their intended effect. [4] But in practice, both regulators and markets have treated the buffers as untouchable hard minimums. As a result, instead of acting as shock absorbers, buffer requirements can actually exacerbate the hoarding of liquid assets, accelerating the transmission of liquidity stress throughout the system. And here’s an irony: by driving banks to exhaust regulatory buffers before accessing the discount window, we have entrenched discount window stigma. If you only go to the window when things are really bad, then going to the window signals that things are really bad. The framework has also done little to enhance readiness and willingness to use the central bank’s facilities. Indeed, as policymakers at the time made clear, the intent was 180 degrees the opposite, in effect deputizing large banks as liquidity insurers for the financial system writ large. That was a mistake. Use of the lender of last resort during severe stress is not a policy failure. That’s what the central bank is designed to do—prevent liquidity spirals. When banks monetize liquid assets through sales or repo, that simply redistributes reserves, potentially even spreading liquidity stress across the system. Because only the central bank can create new reserves, only the central bank can add the aggregate system-wide base liquidity that typically is necessary to counteract a flight to safety. That unique power positions the central bank as the natural insurer against severe liquidity stress. Potential Reforms Given this misalignment in liquidity regulation, there is a strong case for a wholesale revisiting of the framework. But that should not hold up near-term reforms to restore the lender of last resort to its intended role. To that end, the liquidity coverage ratio requirements and other liquidity rules [5] should give appropriate capped recognition of borrowing capacity associated with collateral prepositioned at the discount window. This is a targeted, sensible reform that simply recognizes that prepositioned, collateralized borrowing capacity is real, monetizable liquidity. This reform would help rebalance the boundary between self-insurance and the lender of last resort. It also would enhance operational preparedness by creating strong incentives for prepositioning collateral and regular testing. And it could reduce discount window stigma by normalizing access. The cap on recognized discount window borrowing capacity is a critical feature. Self-insurance against idiosyncratic liquidity risk remains critical for resiliency and orderly resolution. In designing and calibrating the cap, regulators could explore whether it should be sized for each bank based on the bank’s demonstrated usage of the discount window. For example, recognized borrowing capacity could be capped at the lesser of the overall ceiling and some multiple of the bank’s discount window borrowing over a specified period of time. That approach could ensure that this borrowing capacity is indeed real liquidity while helping to reduce discount window stigma. Regulators could also explore a mechanism to adjust the cap during severe stress. Temporarily increasing recognition could enhance buffer useability by temporarily adjusting banks’ liquidity metrics. Increasing the cap during stress also could interact with incentives for ongoing, limited use to create automatic structural stabilizers that involve the discount window early on when stress is incipient. Importantly, none of this need undermine market or regulatory discipline. Central bank borrowing would remain collateralized, subject to conservative haircuts, and limited to solvent institutions. Capital requirements would remain appropriately calibrated. Supervisors would retain their access and discretion. What this would do is align liquidity regulation with the appropriate role of the lender of last resort. The central bank can, should, and indeed must, step in to provide liquidity during periods of severe stress. We should design the framework accordingly. Conclusion Over the last year, the regulators have made significant progress toward a financial system that supports Parallel Prosperity for both Wall Street and Main Street. Liquidity reform will be a critical step toward getting banks back into lending—back into financing homes, factories, infrastructure, and innovation. In parallel with this work, Treasury will continue to coordinate complementary reforms. The administration will continue to advocate for targeted deposit insurance reform, in particular expanded coverage for noninterest-bearing transaction accounts. I expect FinCEN and the bank regulators will soon propose a rule to recenter AML/CFT supervision on program effectiveness, and enhance FinCEN’s role in AML/CFT supervision and enforcement. I expect the bank regulators will soon revamp the model risk governance guidance that has constrained responsible AI adoption. And we will continue to push for agreements among the bank regulators to reduce duplicative examinations. With this progress, I would encourage you to think ambitiously about the future of finance and financial regulation. To that end, Treasury will begin to rethink the appropriate activities of banking organizations, with an eye in particular toward facilitating responsible adoption of new technologies. Thank you for the time today, and I look forward to hearing your thoughts. [1] Liquidity regulation includes the liquidity coverage ratio requirement, the net stable funding ratio requirement, internal liquidity stress tests conducted pursuant to rule, the resolution liquidity adequacy and positioning requirement, and the resolution liquidity execution need requirement, as well as the related supervisory expectations with respect to liquidity risk management. [2] In November 2014, then-Governor Tarullo said, “Liquidity regulation is still a relatively new undertaking . . . . There is still need for conceptual work on such questions as how to specify the extent to which banks should be required to self-insure against liquidity risk . . . .” Daniel K. Tarullo, Governor, Bd. of Governors of the Fed. Reserve Sys., Liquidity Regulation , Remarks at The Clearing House 2014 Annual Conference (Nov. 20, 2014) . [3] At the time, then-Governor Stein argued that “liquidity regulation . . . reflect[s] a desire to reduce dependence on the central bank as a lender of last resort (LOLR)” and that “a central premise must be that the use of LOLR capacity in a crisis scenario is socially costly.” He rationalized that premise in part on the assumption that “the use of an LOLR to support banks when they get into trouble can lead to moral hazard problems.” Jeremy C. Stein, Governor, Bd. of Governors of the Fed. Reserve Sys., Liquidity Regulation and Central Banking , Remarks at “Finding the Right Balance,” 2013 Credit Markets Symposium Sponsored by the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond (Apr. 19, 2013) . Governor Stein did however express an openness to counting some committed LOLR capacity in the liquidity coverage ratio requirement, but only to the extent it had an upfront fee. [4] Id. (“The [Group of Governors and Heads of Supervision] has also made clear its view that, during periods of stress, it would be appropriate for banks to use their [high-quality liquid assets], thereby falling below the minimum. However, creating a regime in which banks voluntarily choose to do so is not an easy task. A number of observers have expressed the concern that if a bank is held to an [liquidity coverage ratio] standard of 100 percent in normal times, it may be reluctant to allow its ratio to drop below 100 percent when facing large outflows, even if regulators were to permit this temporary deviation, for fear that a decline in the ratio could be interpreted as a sign of weakness.”). [5] The regulators could consider adjustments to other liquidity regulations, including the internal liquidity stress tests and the resolution-related liquidity requirements. ###
