About this Event

Event Description

A progressive three-part webinar program that takes bankers from stable coin fundamentals to GENIUS Act implementation and advanced financial-crime risk management.

Stable coin Bootcamp is a progressive three-part educational program designed to help bankers understand the rapidly developing stable coin market, the GENIUS Act, and the compliance obligations associated with digital payments. The program moves participants from foundational concepts to regulatory implementation and, finally, advanced financial-crime risk management.

Each part builds on the previous session while also functioning as a standalone webinar. Participants will learn how stable coins operate, where banks may encounter them, and how the emerging regulatory framework could affect deposits, payments, liquidity, custody, customer relationships, and risk management.

Every session includes five additional handouts.

Participants leave each part with a practical resource package designed to support internal discussions, policy development, risk assessments, and implementation.

  • Part 1 (Oct 14, 2026) - Stablecoins for Bankers—What Every Bank Must Know

    • This foundational session explains stable coins in practical banking language. Participants will learn how stable coins are created, transferred, held, redeemed, and supported by reserve assets. The program will distinguish stable coins from cryptocurrency, tokenized deposits, central bank digital currencies, traditional payment products, and other digital assets.

  • Part 2 (Oct 21, 2026) - The GENIUS Act—Compliance Requirements for Banks and Issuers

    • This intermediate session examines the GENIUS Act from the perspective of financial institutions and stable coin issuers. Participants will explore requirements involving authorization, reserve assets, redemption, disclosures, custody, risk management, supervision, and regulatory reporting, as well as the different roles banks may assume.

  • Part 3 (Oct 28, 2026) - Stable coin BSA/AML, Sanctions, and Transaction Monitoring

    • This advanced session examines how the Bank Secrecy Act, customer identification, customer due diligence, suspicious activity reporting, and OFAC sanctions obligations apply in a stable coin environment. Participants will learn how risks differ when a bank serves an issuer, holds reserve deposits, provides custody, or processes related payments.
