The US Office of the Comptroller of the Currency released its proposed FinTech charter supplement to the Comptroller’s Licensing Manual. Among other things, the OCC supplement defends the decision to consider issuing special purpose national bank charters for FinTech companies and provides further guidance on (i) initial steps for applying for an SPNB charter; (ii) standards that would apply to such a charter; (iii) applicable business plan requirements (i.e., inclusion of alternative business strategies, contingency plans and recovery and exit strategies); and (iv) the approval process. Comments on the OCC draft supplement are due by April 14, 2017.
