The OCC plans to finalize the GENIUS Act stablecoin regulation by November 2026, setting a framework for oversight of stablecoin issuers including capital and liquidity requirements, with enforcement to begin by January 2027.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Fintech, and 5 sources have reported it between 17 Aug 2026 and 20 Aug 2026.

◆ The Wire takeaway

You need to prepare your stablecoin operations for a fully regulated environment starting January 2027 as the OCC finalizes rules this November. Delay in compliance could lock you out of the US market or delay your launch.
