Regulators Lift 2016 Penalty on Wells Fargo

Wells Fargo announced that the U.S. Office of the Comptroller of the Currency has lifted a 2016 punishment related to the bank's sales practices, marking progress in its efforts to address compliance issues stemming from a fake accounts scandal. This is the sixth consent order terminated by regulators since 2019, signaling a positive step for the bank. However, Wells Fargo still operates under an asset cap imposed by the Federal Reserve and has eight remaining open consent orders. The removal of the asset cap would represent a significant turning point for the bank, and CEO Charlie Scharf expressed confidence in the company's trajectory.

"Wells Fargo's Regulatory Restrictions Eased After Fake-Account Scandal"

The Biden Administration has eased some restrictions on Wells Fargo, signaling that the bank has successfully addressed its toxic culture following a series of scandals. The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency terminated a consent order that had been in place since 2016, which required Wells to overhaul its sales practices and provide consumer and employee protections. While this decision is a major victory for Wells' management, the bank still faces a Federal Reserve consent order and restrictions on its size until it resolves its sales culture issues.

"Wells Fargo's 2016 Consent Order Lifted by Regulators, Stock Rises"

Wells Fargo announced that the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency has lifted a key penalty related to its 2016 fake accounts scandal, leading to a more than 5% jump in the bank's shares. This marks a significant milestone for the bank, which has retired six consent orders since 2019 under CEO Charlie Scharf's leadership, although eight more remain, including one from the Federal Reserve. The 2016 scandal and related consent order had prompted scrutiny and tarnished the bank's reputation, leading to the retirement of its former CEOs.

SEC and Binance in Legal Battle Over US Assets Freeze

The SEC and Binance's US arm, BAM Trading, have filed a proposed consent order that would ease some of the restrictions from a previous SEC request to freeze the company's assets. The proposed order would allow BAM Trading to make payroll and other financial commitments but would require Binance to transfer all US-based assets to new wallets and not make payments or transfer any assets to any Binance entity or individual acting on behalf of Binance. The court has asked for further clarification, and both parties have until June 13 to weigh in with any changes before a decision is made concerning the proposed consent order.
