On August 7, President Trump signed an Executive Order directing the DOL, the SEC, and Treasury (including the IRS) to review and revise guidance to facilitate the inclusion of alternative investments—such as private equity, cryptocurrency, and other non-traditional assets—in defined contribution retirement plans. The Executive Order follows action in May of this year by the DOL to rescind its 2022 guidance that discouraged fiduciaries from including cryptocurrency options in 401(k) retirement plans.

Debanking—closing accounts or refusing to open accounts for customers perceived to be high risk—has become a hotly debated topic in recent years among groups on both sides of the political aisle. The debate involves allegations that banks have improperly debanked customers for political, rather than risk-based, reasons. Such accusations have shined a spotlight on banks’ account management practices, resulting in changes to regulatory practices and a new executive order from President Trump requiring additional regulatory changes and investigations. All of which will mean increased risk for financial institutions.
