美国参议员就Cantor Fitzgerald与Tether的关联展开调查
美国投资银行Cantor Fitzgerald正面临来自民主党参议员的审查,焦点在于其与稳定币发行商Tether的业务联系。参议员理查德·布鲁梅尔(Richard Blumenthal)要求该机构提供其与该稳定币发行商合作的详细记录,并披露商务部长霍华德·卢特尼克(Howard Lutnick)及其家族从这一安排中获得的收益情况。
在周四发出的一封信件中,担任参议院永久调查小组委员会资深民主党员的布鲁梅尔要求Cantor主席布兰登·卢特尼克(Brandon Lutnick)解释公司如何监控Tether遵守银行法和制裁法的情况,并要求提供所有涉及霍华德·卢特尼克关于Tether的通信记录,包括他离开Cantor之后的相关通信内容。
“令人不安的是,Cantor Fitzgerald与Tether之间利润丰厚的商业安排是以牺牲美国的国家安全为代价的,”布鲁梅尔在信中写道。
此次质询将Cantor与Tether之间高利润的合作关系置于聚光灯下。据报道,Cantor Fitzgerald于2024年获得了Tether 5%的股权,并为Tether持有的数百亿美元美国国债储备提供托管服务。布鲁梅尔指控称,自特朗普再次上任以来,Cantor在Tether中的股权估值估计已从6亿美元激增至100亿美元。在此期间,霍华德·卢特尼克获得的收益超过2.5亿美元,其中包括从Cantor Fitzgerald分得的1.92亿美元。
这封信件紧随上个月参议院永久调查小组委员会民主党调查人员的一份报告之后,该报告指责Tether的稳定币USDT已成为伊朗影子银行网络的关键工具。布鲁梅尔呼吁美国财政部和司法部对此潜在的制裁违规行为展开调查。Tether方面随后发表声明称,多年来一直与执法部门合作,并在今年冻结了近5.5亿美元与伊朗相关的USDT。
“正如Tether从这些非法活动中使用的稳定币利息和投资中赚取了数百万美元一样,Cantor Fitzgerald也因其与Tether的关系而获利,”布鲁梅尔在其致Cantor的最新信函中写道。
Cointelegraph曾联系Cantor Fitzgerald和Tether寻求评论,但截至发稿前未收到立即回复。
Cantor与Tether的合作渊源可追溯至2021年
Cantor's relationship with Tether began in 2021, when Cantor began providing custody services for some U.S. Treasury bonds backed by the stablecoin issuer's reserves.
During that period, Howard Lutnick served as Cantor's chairman and CEO and assisted in negotiating the company's investment in Tether in April 2024.
In February 2025, Lutnik resigned as Cantor after the Senate confirmed him as Commerce Secretary. Subsequently, the company appointed its eldest son, Brandon, as chairman and the second son as vice chairman.
In addition to his income and compliance record, Brumel is also seeking specific terms for Howard Lutnik's withdrawal from Cantor, and details on whether Tether provided any loans or financing to Lutnik or his family to assist in transferring his ownership to his children.
The senator also asked whether Cantor had requested an independent audit of Tether, whether the company had considered terminating the partnership, and what steps it had taken to investigate allegations of illegal financial activity and circumvention of sanctions.
Brummel asked Cantor to respond by October 23.
