Capital One Financial Corp. said the U.S. Justice and Treasury departments are looking into possible money-laundering violations.

One of the country's largest credit-card lenders, Capital One said the federal authorities had asked for the information in "early 2015," according to a regulatory filing.

Last year, the McLean, Va., company disclosed similar requests for information from the New York District Attorney's Office, saying New York officials were reviewing "certain check casher clients of the Commercial Banking business."
