Stablecoins & U.S. Banking: What Financial Institutions Must Know Now

7.7.26 | 12:00 PM EST

Instructor: Kevin Olsen

Course Duration: 1 HR

What You'll Learn

Stablecoins are no longer a side conversation in digital assets. With the passage of the GENIUS Act, they have moved squarely into the regulated banking landscape. For financial institutions, the question is no longer whether stablecoins matter. It is figuring out how they fit in and will be used within the electronic banking industry. This course provides a practical, regulator-informed breakdown of what the GENIUS Act means for banks and credit unions today. We will examine issuer versus non-issuer roles, redemption and reserve expectations, custody considerations, governance requirements, and how stablecoins intersect with existing BSA/AML, liquidity, and risk management frameworks. Attendees will leave with a clear decision-making framework to determine whether their institution should participate, how to structure involvement responsibly, and what examiners are likely to expect as implementation timelines approach. If stablecoins are becoming part of the financial infrastructure, this session will help ensure your institution is prepared rather than reactive.
