The Federal Reserve said Tuesday that Wells Fargo is no longer subject to the restraints the Fed placed on the bank in 2018 for having a toxic sales and banking culture.

Federal regulators moved to lift an unprecedented punishment that had handcuffed growth at Wells Fargo, a milestone in the bank’s efforts to repair its tarnished reputation after its fake-accounts scandal erupted nearly a decade ago.

In the scandal’s wake, the Federal Reserve imposed an unprecedented $1.95 trillion asset cap, the most significant of the many penalties Wells Fargo faced from regulators. For over seven years, the bank was essentially shackled in place while watching as rivals like Charlotte-based Bank of America continued to grow.
