Marijuana and Hemp Banking in New York: Rules and Regulations

New York is blazing a trail in the cannabis industry thanks to the Marijuana Regulation and Taxation Act signed by Governor Andrew Cuomo in March 2021. The Act legalized the adult use of marijuana, creating one of the largest legal markets in the country.

The industry is set to generate millions of dollars in revenue and thousands of jobs while addressing social justice issues and reinvesting tax revenue into impacted communities.

New dispensaries and grow operations are sprouting up all over the state, with a “Buy Legal Marijuana” campaign encouraging consumers to purchase from licensed retailers.

As the state’s industry continues to flourish, the need for reliable and comprehensive cannabis banking in New York for cannabis-related businesses (CRBs) becomes increasingly important. That’s where Safe Harbor Financial comes in, providing essential financial services to help CRBs thrive in this exciting new industry.

With our expert team and tailored banking solutions, we’re here to support the growth of CRBs.
