With forty years experience in working with and for international banks located in New York City, including Edge Act Corporations and Branches of Foreign Banks from Germany, United Kingdom, Luxembourg, Hong Kong, Singapore, China, Pakistan, India, in Operations, US Dollar Clearing, IT Management, Broker-Dealer implementation, and Compliance, I have had “hands on” knowledge, skill, and practice in many areas affecting Foreign Banking Organizations doing business in the United States and the attendant pitfalls.

Specializing now in Compliance related consulting, a field which provides great personal satisfaction and challenges, I have developed an openness to the ever-changing regulatory landscape and the need to interpret the regulations and guidance to help the banking organization grow within the boundaries, but not to cross them.

I have yet to meet the Compliance Officer who waits with joyful expectation the arrival of the examination team, an internal or external audit team, or independent consultant to conduct a review – but all can provide valuable assistance to organizations when seen as allies and not adversaries.

Therein can Consulting for Compliance help.
