Modern Treasury and Rain seek OCC national trust bank charters

  • Modern Treasury and Rain each applied to establish an OCC-supervised national trust bank on Oct. 5, 2026.
  • Modern Treasury would focus on custody and fiat services, while Rain’s proposed RNTB would also manage reserves and issue and redeem stablecoins.
  • Both applications require OCC review and other approvals; Rain’s process includes a public comment period and proposed CEO Brandon Soto is subject to review.

Modern Treasury and Rain separately filed applications with the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) on Oct. 5, 2026, to establish national trust banks. Modern Treasury National Trust Bank would provide digital-asset custody and related fiat services without taking deposits, making loans, issuing stablecoins or receiving FDIC insurance. Rain National Trust Bank (RNTB), headquartered in New York, would custody digital assets and U.S. dollars, manage reserves for permitted stablecoin issuers under the GENIUS Act, and issue and redeem U.S. dollar-backed stablecoins for institutional clients, while also not accepting deposits, offering consumer accounts or making commercial loans. Both proposed entities would operate as separately capitalized subsidiaries under OCC supervision and remain subject to approval before beginning operations.
