Trump signed a decree that prohibits 'debanking' practices in the United States.

President Donald Trump recently signed an executive order aimed at curbing "debanking," which is the practice by which banks or financial institutions deny or close accounts to individuals, companies, or organizations because of their political or religious beliefs or legal activities.

This practice has mainly affected individuals, companies, and religious groups associated with Trump or conservative ideas, whose bank accounts have been suspended or directly closed.

The order aims to guarantee equitable access to financial services for all Americans, regardless of their political or religious beliefs, business activities, or legal activities.

A Democratic guideline that facilitated debanking is eliminated.

One of the key points of this decree is the elimination of the concept of "reputational risk," a regulatory guideline that had been created by Democrats. The order instructs federal banking regulators to review their examination manuals, guidance, and any related documents to remove these types of vague and potentially discriminatory criteria.

Furthermore, the decree instructs the Small Business Administration to require financial institutions under its jurisdiction to take measures to restore relationships with clients or potential clients who were previously rejected for ideological or religious reasons.

Additionally, the Treasury Department must develop, in coordination with the government's economic advisors, a comprehensive strategy to combat ideological debanking, including possible legislative or regulatory solutions.

Trump was debanked by order of Biden.

Another important provision of the decree is that regulators must review complaint records for incidents of banking discrimination based on religious beliefs. If they find evidence of this activity, they must refer these cases to the Department of Justice for investigation, which may impose fines or judicial subpoenas.

Trump has promoted the creation of this legislation because he himself was a victim of this practice by order of the Biden administration. It happened when he finished his first term and became an opponent of the Democratic government. At that time, JP Morgan closed his account and Bank of America refused to do business with his company.

This personal experience reinforced his determination to act, according to the president in an interview. He also mentioned that the current banking system discriminates against conservatives and religious people "because they're afraid of the radical left."
