Citizens Financial exits credit facilities for CoreCivic and GEO Group amid activist pressure

Citizens Financial is exiting the credit facilities for two private prison operators, CoreCivic and The GEO Group, amid pressure from activist groups. The bank said the decision was a business move based on changed commercial circumstances, noting that the federal government recently purchased several facilities from CoreCivic and intends to buy others from GEO, potentially reducing the companies' capital needs. Citizens had faced pushback from organizations including the De-ICE Citizens Bank Coalition, Greater Boston Interfaith Organization, and Cranston Forward over its financing relationships with the prison operators, which have been clients since 2011 and 2018 respectively. The bank expressed disappointment at being drawn into what it called a largely political matter, emphasizing that regulations prohibit denying banking services to lawful businesses based on political or religious considerations. The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency had previously issued a preliminary finding in December 2025 that called out reducing capital access to industries including private prisons.
