Federal Reserve issues cease-and-desist order against Evolve Bank

Evolve Bank and Trust has reached a cease and desist agreement with the Federal Reserve. The Federal Reserve found that the bank had engaged in unsafe and unsound practices in some of its fintech partnerships and lacked sufficient anti-money laundering controls. Due to the failure of intermediary Synapse Financial Technologies, many fintech users' accounts were frozen, drawing attention to Evolve. The situation is complicated by discrepancies in the accounts of Synapse and Evolve, as well as some fintech companies' account balances. Evolve plays an important role in the cryptocurrency ecosystem, providing financial services to BlockFi and FTX customers. The cease and desist order requires Evolve to submit a more detailed compliance plan and updated due diligence procedures to ensure that it has sufficient customer information.

  • Fed Governor Bowman: Be cautious about rate cuts

    Federal Reserve Governor Bowman said there are upside risks to inflation and the continued strength of the labor market, indicating that she may not be prepared to support a rate cut at the next meeting of U.S. central bank officials in September. She said that the progress made in reducing inflation in May and June was welcome, but inflation is still above the committee's 2% target, which is disturbing. I will remain cautious when considering adjusting the current policy stance. She also said that U.S. fiscal policy, the pressure on the real estate market from immigration, and geopolitical risks may all put upward pressure on housing prices, and the recent jump in the unemployment rate to 4.3% may exaggerate the extent of the cooling of the labor market.
