美国货币监理署(OCC)已对 World Liberty Trust Company 的全国性信托银行牌照申请给出有条件批准。这意味着,这家与 World Liberty Financial 相关的机构距离进入美国受监管银行体系又近一步,但申请仍未最终完成。

World Liberty Financial 在官网披露,一家与特朗普及其部分家族成员有关联的实体持有公司 38% 股份。由于这一股权关系,这项审批很快引发华盛顿关注,争议焦点集中在总统家族是否会从加密业务中直接获益。

牌照获批后可自营稳定币服务

按照 CNBC 援引 OCC 公布的文件,这张牌照若最终落地,将允许 World Liberty 在信托银行框架下开展相关业务,包括把部分稳定币服务转入内部处理,而不再完全依赖 BitGo 等第三方机构。

稳定币通常以美国国债等高流动性资产作为储备,并支持按 1 比 1 兑换美元。对发行方而言,若托管、清算或相关运营环节改为自营,业务控制权和收入空间都可能提升。

申请仍需完成资本等条件

不过,这次批准并非正式落地。OCC 文件显示,World Liberty Trust Company 仍需完成后续步骤,其中包括补充资本等要求,整个牌照流程才算结束。

OCC 在特朗普任内对新银行牌照申请态度更为积极。根据机构数据,自 2025 年以来,OCC 已收到 40 份申请,明显高于拜登任内水平,其中不少与加密项目有关。

民主党人质疑利益冲突

World Liberty Financial 首席执行官 Zach Witkoff 表示,公司欢迎联邦监管机构持续审查。他同时担任这家受 OCC 监管的信托公司董事长。公开资料显示,他也是特朗普中东事务谈判代表 Steven Witkoff 的儿子。

这项审批也再次触发国会民主党人对特朗普加密利益的批评。部分民主党议员此前已反对《Clarity Act》相关推进,原因之一是法案未对总统从加密项目获利设置更严格限制。

补充信息:参议员伊丽莎白·沃伦此前曾敦促 OCC,不应在特朗普未剥离相关利益前批准这项申请;对于此次有条件批准,OCC 未作进一步评论。
