CRBs have unique legal and compliance requirements. Partnering with a knowledgeable, cannabis-friendly bank like us is key to navigating these complexities.
Currently Bank of Guam is only working with licensed cannabis-related businesses in Guam and CNMI.
There are four sectors of the cannabis industry: Direct CRBs, Indirect CRBs, Hemp-Related Businesses (HRBs) and CBD businesses. Each is considered a Cannabis-Related Business (CRB) but requires a different form of compliance to operate.
The process typically takes about one week, involving application submission, verification, in-person meetings, site visits, and compliance audits.
While some banks may avoid CRBs, we embrace and support them with our dedicated services.
In a word, "yes". But we'll need to talk more to understand the opportunities and risks involved with your CRB.
Absolutely. Bank of Guam is an FDIC-insured community bank. We are fully compliant with the law and federal regulators as well as FINCEN Guidelines. Your money is as safe as it would be in any FDIC-insured bank account.
