Monitoring: Potential Executive Order Requiring Collecting Citizenship or Immigration Status

Posted by on February 24, 2026

We’re aware of recent news coverage regarding a potential executive order that could require financial institutions to collect customers’ citizenship or immigration status information as part of account opening or compliance processes. Thus far, these conversations are all speculative.

Reports indicate that the Trump administration may be considering changes under discussion within the U.S. Department of the Treasury; however, no formal rule, regulation, or official guidance has been issued at this time.

We understand this may raise questions. We are actively gathering additional information and closely monitoring developments. As more facts become available and credible updates are confirmed, we will continue to provide timely updates.
