AI Summary

  • Redefines "outstanding payment obligation" to include both payment instruments sold by the licensee and all other outstanding money transmission obligations issued in the United States, replacing the previous "outstanding payment instrument" definition.

  • Eliminates the "key shareholder" definition and consolidates related requirements under an expanded "principal" definition that includes persons with 25% or more ownership interest, managers, and executive officers.

  • Requires money transmitter applicants to provide criminal history records and background information for all principals (rather than separately for executive officers and key shareholders), streamlining application procedures.

  • Modifies reporting requirements for licensees to track all outstanding payment obligations rather than just payment instruments, affecting annual reports, permissible investment calculations, and voluntary license surrender disclosures.

  • Effective July 1, 2112, with an exception allowing existing licensees to comply with modified annual reporting requirements by November 1, 2017.
