Conference of State Bank Supervisors - CSBS

All 50 states and U.S. territories have financial regulators from state banking departments, and they all belong to the Conference of State Bank Supervisors (CSBS).

The organization develops policies, provides training and continuing education, advocates before Congress and state legislators, and manages the Nationwide Multistate Licensing System.

One of the main goals of CSBS is to maintain the U.S. dual banking system (federal and state) and not let federal laws usurp state regulations. They also work to ensure that the public’s money remains safe in each state’s banking system.

In addition, they provide tools and resources for state bank examiners and other banking professionals, helping to maintain cybersecurity and prevent electronic crimes.
