On April 8, 2026, FinCEN and OFAC issued a joint NPRM implementing the GENIUS Act’s directive to treat Permitted Payment Stablecoin Issuers (PPSIs) as financial institutions under the Bank Secrecy Act. The GENIUS Act (Pub. L. 119-27, enacted July 18, 2025) is explicit: PPSIs “shall be treated as a financial institution for purposes of the Bank Secrecy Act” and are subject to all federal laws applicable to a financial institution, including economic sanctions, anti-money laundering, customer identification, and due diligence requirements.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

What are the Five Core PPSI Obligations<\/h2>

NPRM Docket FINCEN-2026-0100<\/em><\/p>

1. Written AML\/CFT program<\/h4>

Board-approved, risk-based, tailored to size and complexity. Must include: risk assessment process identifying ML\/TF\/sanctions risks; internal controls; annual independent testing; ongoing employee training; US-based compliance officer. A compliance officer is explicitly barred if they have prior felony convictions for financial crimes, including insider trading, cybercrime, or fraud. FinCEN will not pursue enforcement absent “significant or systemic” programme failures.<\/p>

2. Suspicious Activity Reporting (SARs) \u2014 $5,000 threshold<\/h4>

PPSIs must file SARs for transactions indicating possible law violations at or above the $5,000 threshold, mirroring current banking standards. Represents a significant operational build-out for issuers that have not previously maintained systematic SAR filing infrastructure.<\/p>

3. Technical “freeze and seize” capability<\/h4>

PPSIs must maintain technical capabilities, policies, and procedures to block, freeze, and reject transactions violating federal or state law or any lawful order from regulators or law enforcement. Extends to secondary market activity on decentralised networks, including smart contract transfers not directly involving the issuer.<\/p>

4. Customer Identification Program (CIP) + EDD + Travel Rule<\/h4>

PPSIs must maintain an effective CIP covering account holders and high-value transactions, with enhanced due diligence for higher-risk relationships. Travel Rule applies to fund transfers of $3,000 or more. Note: the NPRM specifies the CIP obligation is subject of a separate forthcoming rulemaking.<\/p>

5. OFAC sanctions compliance program \u2014 five elements<\/h4>

OFAC requires: (1) senior management commitment; (2) risk assessment; (3) internal controls; (4) testing and auditing; (5) training. Strict liability applies, civil penalties possible even without knowledge of sanctions nexus. Adequacy of compliance programme is one of OFAC’s 11 penalty calibration factors.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Secondary Market Accountability<\/h2>

~5,700 Wallets frozen (Tether + Circle, end of 2025)<\/strong><\/p>

~$2.5B Assets frozen in those wallets<\/strong><\/p>

The proposed rule holds PPSIs accountable for activity on decentralised networks, including transfers via smart contracts not directly involving the issuer. Treasury specifically addresses secondary market accountability and expects PPSIs to monitor and disrupt state-sponsored sanctions evasion even after tokens leave the primary issuance point. This voluntary practice now becomes a legal requirement.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

The Cost of Waiting<\/h2>

The reclassification of PPSIs as financial institutions under the Bank Secrecy Act is not a distant regulatory possibility. It is an unfolding legal reality with a firm enforcement date of January 18, 2027. For stablecoin issuers, the window to build compliant AML\/CFT infrastructure is narrowing quickly. Meeting all five NPRM obligations simultaneously, from SAR filing and CIP to real-time sanctions screening and secondary market monitoring, demands a purpose-built compliance platform, not a patchwork of manual processes.<\/p>

Sentinel Compliance Platform was designed precisely for this moment, delivering automated KYC, continuous portfolio monitoring, un-editable audit logs, and OFAC screening in a single integrated system with same-day go-live capability. In an environment of strict liability, where civil penalties can attach even without knowledge of a sanctions nexus, the cost of delayed or inadequate compliance infrastructure far outweighs the cost of getting it right from the start. For PPSIs navigating this new regulatory landscape, Sentinel is not simply a convenience. It is a cornerstone of a defensible, audit-ready compliance program.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
