SAN FRANCISCO, February 13, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Wells Fargo & Company (NYSE: WFC) today confirmed that the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) terminated its 2018 consent order related to the company’s compliance risk management program.

Charlie Scharf, Wells Fargo’s CEO, said of today’s news:

"We are pleased that the OCC has validated the work required in the 2018 compliance consent order and has terminated the enforcement action. This development, along with the termination of three other consent orders in the last three weeks and the termination by the OCC of the 2016 sales practices consent order last year, is a huge accomplishment for the many thousands of people at Wells Fargo who have worked tirelessly to transform the company. We are a different company today than when the new management team arrived.
