ACTION: Final guidance. AGENCY: The Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (Board) has approved final guidelines (Account Access Guidelines) for Federal Reserve Banks (Reserve Banks) to utilize in evaluating requests for access to Reserve Bank master accounts and services (accounts and services). DATES: Implementation Date is August 19, 2022.

For users of TTY–TRS, please call 711 from any telephone, anywhere in the United States. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: SUMMARY: I. Background The payments landscape is evolving rapidly as technological progress and other factors are leading both to the introduction of new financial products PO 00000 Frm 00047 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 51099 and services and to different ways of providing traditional banking services. Relatedly, there has been a recent uptick in novel charter types being authorized or considered by federal and state banking authorities across the country. As a result, the Reserve Banks are receiving an increasing number of inquiries and access requests from institutions that have obtained, or are considering obtaining, such novel charter types. A. Summary of May 2021 Proposed Account Access Guidelines On May 5, 2021, the Board requested comment on proposed guidelines to be used by Reserve Banks in evaluating requests for accounts and services (Original Proposal or Proposed Guidelines).1 2 The Original Proposal reflected the Board’s policy goals of (1) ensuring the safety and soundness of the banking system, (2) effectively implementing monetary policy, (3) promoting financial stability, (4) protecting consumers, and (5) promoting a safe, efficient, inclusive, and innovative payment system. The Original Proposal was also intended to ensure that Reserve Banks apply a transparent and consistent set of factors when reviewing requests for access to accounts and services (access requests).3 The Original Proposal consisted of the following six principles: 1. Each institution requesting an account or services must be eligible under the Federal Reserve Act or other federal statute to maintain an account at a Reserve Bank and receive Federal Reserve services and should have a well-founded, clear, transparent, and enforceable legal basis for its operations. 2. Provision of an account and services to an institution should not present or create undue credit, operational, settlement, cyber or other risks to the Reserve Bank. 3. Provision of an account and services to an institution should not present or create undue credit, liquidity, operational, settlement, cyber or other risks to the overall payment system. 4. Provision of an account and services to an institution should not create undue risk to the stability of the U.S. financial system. 5. Provision of an account and services to an institution should not create undue risk to the overall economy by facilitating activities such as money laundering, terrorism financing, fraud, cybercrimes, or other illicit activity. 1 86 FR 25865 (May 11, 2021). Proposed Guidelines are designed to be applied to both new and pending access requests as well as cases where the Reserve Bank determines to reevaluate the risk of existing accounts. This broad application is intended to ensure that risks are identified and mitigated and that institutions are treated in a fair and equitable manner. 3 In developing the Account Access Guidelines, the Board sought to incorporate as much as possible existing Reserve Bank risk management practices. 2 The E:\FR\FM\19AUN1.SGM 19AUN1
