On March 20, the New York Department of Financial Services (NYDFS) entered into a consent order with a money transmitter, joining a group of state financial regulators acting through a multi-state task force coordinated by the Conference of State Bank Supervisors (CSBS) and the Money Transmitter Regulators Association (MTRA). The regulators alleged that the company violated state money transmission laws by failing to satisfy outstanding transmission liabilities, maintain adequate net worth and permissible investments, and continue licensed operations in a financially sound manner.
