Bank Nerd Corner welcomes BJ Sanford and Matthew Lambert to discuss the 2019 case, Vullo v. OCC, an important and somewhat-unsettled case that continues to have downstream impacts in the financial services space today.

BJ is a partner at Sivon, Natter & Wechsler. Matthew is deputy general counsel at the Conference of State Bank Supervisors. Together, they explore the history of the proposed special-purpose charter, the arguments that both the CSBS and New York made against the OCC and some of the major issues and central questions in the case. They also share where they see this decision falling in the realm of U.S. banking law and regulation, what remains unsolved and how it lives on today.
