This legislation directs key federal financial regulators to conduct comprehensive studies on the impact of partnerships between financial technology companies and traditional financial institutions. Specifically, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, the Comptroller of the Currency, and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation are tasked with examining these collaborations within the banking sector . Their study will assess how these partnerships influence competition, innovation, consumer protection, and the availability of financial products and services. The banking sector study will delve into specific benefits, such as how these partnerships support the formation of new banking organizations , reduce time to market for products, lower compliance burdens, and improve technological capabilities. Concurrently, the National Credit Union Administration is required to perform a similar study focusing on partnerships between financial technology companies and credit unions . Both studies must also identify potential changes to federal laws, rules, or guidance that could promote more effective partnerships. Within one year of enactment, all involved agencies must submit detailed reports to Congress outlining their findings and determinations. These reports are intended to inform future policy decisions regarding the evolving landscape of financial services and the integration of technology.
