## Resource

Senator Pete Ricketts introduced a bipartisan bill on June 18, 2026 to strengthen partnerships between banks and fintech companies. The proposal arrives after the OCC, FDIC, and Federal Reserve issued interagency third-party risk guidance in June 2023 and after market disruptions such as the 2024 Synapse bankruptcy. Sponsor banks have increased audits, monitoring, and vendor oversight, raising onboarding timelines and costs for fintech programs. The bill could standardize due diligence, clarify control ownership, and coordinate examinations, or it could impose more prescriptive requirements that concentrate partnerships among larger sponsors. Founders and banks should update partner agreements, automate reconciliation of pooled accounts, and align risk dashboards and incident playbooks with existing guidance while tracking the bill’s progress through Congress.
