Stablecoin RFC from the OCC, What Comments are they Requesting - Part 2

The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) has released proposed guidance that could significantly shape how financial institutions interact with stablecoins and blockchain-based payment systems.

In this 90-minute session, Payments Professor Kevin Olsen will walk through the key questions the OCC is asking the financial industry and explain why those questions matter. These requests reveal where regulators are uncertain, where risk concerns still exist, and where financial institutions have the opportunity to influence the final regulatory framework.

Participants will gain an understanding of how the OCC is thinking about stablecoin activities including custody, settlement, liquidity management, operational risk, and third-party relationships. The session will also highlight how these questions intersect with the GENIUS Act framework, existing OCC interpretive guidance, and the evolving role of banks in digital asset payments.

Rather than simply reviewing regulatory text, this webinar translates the OCC’s questions into practical insights, from the Payments Professor, for banks and credit unions evaluating stablecoin strategies.

What You'll Learn

  • The key themes behind the OCC’s Request for Comment on stablecoin activities
  • What the OCC is signaling about future bank participation in digital asset payments
  • Where regulators are seeking industry input on risk management and operational controls
  • How stablecoin settlement, custody, and redemption models may fit within FI operations

Who Should Attend

Whether your institution is actively exploring digital asset payments or simply trying to understand the regulatory direction, this session will provide a practical roadmap for interpreting the OCC’s proposal and preparing for what may come next.
