Stewart Announces FINCEN Reporting Services

Stewart’s first-to-market service offering is backed by a new technology platform in response to FinCEN Anti-Money Laundering Rule

HOUSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--In response to FinCEN’s new Anti-Money Laundering Rule (AML), for which the reporting requirements have been delayed until March 1, 2026, Stewart Information Services Corporation (NYSE:STC) has launched FINCEN Reporting Services (FRS), a solution designed to take the pressure off its title and closing customers by collecting data, validating reportability, communicating with buyers and sellers, electronically filing required FinCEN reports, and retaining required documents for the specified time period, all through a new robust technology platform.

“Our FINCEN Reporting Services platform was built with direct input from industry leaders and compliance experts to provide our title and closing customers with peace of mind in meeting these new regulatory requirements,” said Don Booher, Vice President, Stewart Ancillary Services. “By automating and streamlining AML reporting, FRS minimizes risk, reduces manual effort, and delivers secure, reliable compliance for every transaction.”

The industry-first platform enables seamless communication with all parties involved in the transaction, ensuring secure data collection, timely filing and required document retention. Other key benefits of FRS include advanced encryption for data protection, real-time status dashboards, and integrated support for both residential and commercial transactions.

”FRS was ready to launch December 1, but now the additional three months has provided the opportunity to better educate our customers and fully understand the finalized forms’ reporting requirements, ensuring the FRS solution takes the burden of FinCEN reporting off our title and closing customers, allowing them to focus on their business,” said Mark Bauwin, Stewart FinCEN Operations Director.

The Stewart FINCEN Reporting Services team will be at ALTA ONE, October 7–10. Reach out to [e-mail] to schedule a meeting and discover how FRS can support your compliance needs. Learn more at stewart.com/AML-reporting.
