Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent on Monday said the Trump Accounts program has enrolled about 7 million children, calling it "the most successful launch in government history" during a meeting of the Financial Literacy and Education Commission.
The latest enrollment figure is up from 6.5 million children earlier this month.
CNBC, which obtained Bessent's prepared remarks ahead of Monday's meeting, first reported the updated total.
New Shareholders Trump Accounts, also known as 530A accounts, were established through President Donald Trump's One Big Beautiful Bill Act.
The tax-deferred investment accounts are available to U.S. children under 18 with a Social Security number.
