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.
