OCC Announces Enforcement Actions for September 2026WASHINGTON—The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) today released enforcement actions for September 2026.
The OCC uses enforcement actions against an institution-affiliated party (IAP) to deter, encourage correction of, or prevent violations, unsafe or unsound practices, or breaches of fiduciary duty. Enforcement actions against IAPs reinforce the accountability of individuals for their conduct regarding the affairs of a bank. The term “institution-affiliated party,” or IAP, is defined in 12 USC 1813(u) and includes bank directors, officers, employees, and controlling shareholders. Orders of Prohibition prohibit an individual from any participation in the affairs of a bank or other institution as defined in 12 USC 1818(e)(7). The OCC has taken the following actions against IAPs:
- Order of Prohibition against Zena Montejano, former home-based Contact Center Personal Banker based in Corona, California, for U.S. Bank, N.A., Cincinnati, Ohio, for embezzling approximately $329,088 from the bank. (Docket No. AA-ENF-2026-38.)
- Order of Prohibitionagainst Jorge Troncoso, former Branch Banker at a Houston, Texas, branch of PNC Bank, N.A., Wilmington, Delaware, for making unauthorized debits from multiple customer accounts. The bank suffered a loss of at least $74,550. (Docket No. AA-ENF-2026-6.)
