U.S. Treasury Imposes $1.21B Penalty on Bank of America

Catch up on the top industries and stocks that were impacted, or were predicted to be impacted, by the comments, actions and policies of President Donald Trump with this daily recap compiled by The Fly.LAUNDERING VIOLATIONS:The Department of the Treasury announced enforcement actions imposing more than $1.21B penalties against Bank of Americafor violations of anti-money laundering and sanctions laws. These actions include the third-largest penalty in Treasury history and the largest in the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency history, the agency said in a statement. he The Financial Crimes Enforcement Network assessed a $1.2B penalty for the bank's "failure to mitigate and report priority national security risks, including Chinese Money Laundering Networks and illicit finance along the southwest border." The The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency assessed a $750M civil money penalty for Bank of America's "deficient and ineffective BSA/AML (anti-money laundering) compliance program." The Office of Foreign Assets Control announced an $11.6M settlement agreement with the bank over apparent violations "of numerous sanctions programs, including on Iran, Russia, narcotics, and global terrorism."U.S.-JAPAN INITIATIVE:GlobalFoundriesannounced it has been selected as the technology provider and operator for two new semiconductor manufacturing facilities at its Malta, New York, site under a U.S.-Japan initiative providing up to $21B in funding. Enabled by President Donald Trump's trade and investment agreement with Japan, the initiative will accelerate trusted semiconductor manufacturing in the United States, strengthen supply chains and support growing demand across automotive, industrial and connected infrastructure markets. Japan will provide the investment, while GF will contribute its differentiated technologies, manufacturing expertise and proven operational capabilities as technology provider and operator. An initial investment of approximately $10B will accelerate construction of a new 300mm semiconductor fab, which is expected to come online in 2029. An additional investment of approximately $10B would fund a second fab. Together, the two fabs will add significant new U.S. manufacturing capacity and reinforce GF's ability to support customers worldwide.The first fab is expected to add approximately 900,000 300mm wafers of annual U.S. manufacturing capacity when fully operational. A second fab would add approximately the same amount. The project is expected to create about 27,000 construction and ecosystem jobs and more than 1,000 high-skilled manufacturing jobs in New York's Capital Region. GlobalFoundries has also agreed with the U.S. Department of Commerce to amend its existing CHIPS and Science Act award to reallocate $955M and accelerate the company's investments in silicon photonics, silicon-germanium, or SiGe, and advanced packaging at its facilities in Malta, New York, and Burlington, Vermont. These investments will expand domestic manufacturing capacity for technologies increasingly critical to communications infrastructure and data centers. In a separate agreement, the U.S. Department of Commerce will receive equity in GlobalFoundries of approximately 4%. GF expects to break ground on the first fab at its Malta site later this year. The site is permitted and shovel-ready, using existing Malta infrastructure to speed construction. Details of a groundbreaking event will be announced separately.NAVY PROGRAM: Sypris Electronics, a subsidiary of Sypris Solutions, announced that it has received a follow-on award to manufacture and test electronic power supplies for a large, mission-critical U.S. Navy program. Under the new order, Sypris will produce modules for additional systems to be delivered to a U.S. Department of Defense contractor, with deliveries scheduled to begin in 2027. Terms of the award were not disclosed.
