Comptroller releases enforcement actions reported so far for 2018

A civil money penalty (CMP) of $70 million assessed against Citibank, N.A., of Sioux Falls, S.D., is one of six enforcement actions taken by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) in December and January, the office reported Friday.

The comptroller’s office also reported two terminations of existing enforcement actions over the same period.

In addition to the Citibank penalty (which the OCC announced Jan. 5), the national bank regulator assessed a CMP of $10,000 against Mark Perkins of First Community National Bank in Cuba, Mo., for causing losses of $95,000 for the bank. The OCC said Perkins violated provisions of the bank’s lending policy in approving loans that “lacked proper credit analysis, adequate collateral, and board or management approvals.”

Perkins was also served with a “personal cease and desist” order by the OCC, one of the additional actions taken by the comptroller during the period.
