Re: Freedom of Information Law (“FOIL”) Tracking No. 2024-097305

Dear Gunnar D. Larson:

I write in response to the FOIL request that you submitted to The New York State Department of

Financial Services (“Department”), which has been assigned tracking number 2024-097305. The

Department requires additional time to respond to your FOIL request because we are still

working on your request.

The Department intends to provide its determination of your request by November 8, 2024.

Thank you.

2024-097305: 3/11/24: Dear Madam or Sir: On March 30, 2022 New York Magazine published a profile of NY-DFS Superintendent Adrienne Harris titled "Crypto’s Most Powerful Regulator Is Here Adrienne Harris, New York’s financial watchdog, has enormous sway over the industry’s future" (https://nymag.com/intelligencer/2022/03/adrienne-harris-is-cryptos-most-powerful-regulator.html). The profile of Superintendent Harris quotes "... that she would recuse herself from any dealings with companies she has conflicts with." xNY.io - Bank.org seeks access to any and all records specific to Superintendent Harris' recusal(s) as of February 1, 2024.
