OCC revises stablecoin reporting

Highlights

OCC publishes revised weekly and quarterly GENIUS Act reporting forms for stablecoin issuers, with implementation slated for January 25, 2027 and March 31, 2027.
OCC's final rule under the GENIUS Act issued October 21, 2026, incorporates stakeholder feedback and alters reporting obligations for payment stablecoin entities.
Revised reporting framework aims to enhance compliance, strengthen regulatory oversight, and boost transparency for both domestic and foreign payment stablecoin issuers under OCC jurisdiction.

Revised filing framework and implementation dates

As reported by Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, the revised reporting forms apply to permitted payment stablecoin issuers and foreign payment stablecoin issuers registered with the agency under the Guiding and Establishing National Innovation for U.S. Stablecoins, or GENIUS, Act. The forms were first proposed in June 2026 and are now being republished in revised form for public comment after changes tied to the agency's final rule.

The OCC says the collection includes weekly and quarterly reporting forms for entities under its regulatory authority pursuant to the GENIUS Act. Subject to approval by the U.S. Office of Management and Budget, the weekly reporting form takes effect for the January 25, 2027 report date, while the quarterly form takes effect for the March 31, 2027 report date.

Supervision and transparency for stablecoin issuers

On October 21, 2026, the OCC issues a final rule implementing the GENIUS Act's requirements for payment stablecoin issuance and certain related activities by entities within its jurisdiction. The agency says the revisions respond to comments on the June 2026 proposal and align the forms with changes adopted in the final rule.

According to the OCC, the revised forms are intended to support compliance with the final rule, improve supervisory oversight of permitted and foreign payment stablecoin issuers, and promote transparency around their financial condition. The move adds a formal reporting layer for a segment of the digital asset market that is coming under more structured federal oversight in the U.S.

In our earlier article on Malaysia’s Menarabena platform launch, we covered how Menara Asia is digitalising construction procurement by connecting contractors with building material suppliers while centralising certification, documentation, and compliance details. We also noted the role of CIDB-linked support in helping manufacturers and suppliers navigate approvals and product certification, with the broader goal of improving supply-chain efficiency without replacing existing regulatory requirements.
