Recovery and Resolution Lead Examiner at Federal Reserve Bank (FRB) in New York, New York

Job Description:

Company

Federal Reserve Bank of New York

Working at the Federal Reserve Bank of New York positions you at the center of the financial world with a unique perspective on national and international markets and economies. You will work in an environment with a diverse group of experienced professionals to foster and support the safety, soundness, and vitality of our economic and financial systems.

The Bank believes in work flexibility to balance the demands of work and life while also connecting and collaborating with our colleagues in person. Employees can expect to be in the office a couple of days per week as needed for meetings and team collaboration and should live within a commutable distance.

What we do: 

The Supervision Group of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York (FRBNY) supervises banks in the Second District. The objectives of supervision are to:

• Evaluate and promote the overall safety and soundness of supervised institutions




• Ensure supervised institutions’ compliance with relevant laws and regulations, including consumer protection




• Facilitate the stability of the financial system of the United States




• Support the growth and stability of the U.S. economy

Supervision is carried out through a combination of methods, including on-site and off-site examinations involving staff dedicated to the supervision of an individual firm and other professionals focused on analytical, policy and risk matters. Supervision is coordinated with other US agencies.

The Large Institution Supervision Coordinating Committee (LISCC) function is responsible for the development and execution of an effective continuous risk-focused supervisory program for the most complex financial institutions, which includes US Bank Holding and Intermediate Holding Companies that are currently subject to Federal Reserve Systems oversight.  This includes an understanding of and assessment of the firm’s risk profile, governance structure, and strategy with the expressed goal of identifying institutional-specific and horizontal/systemic areas of concern.  Its primary objective is to maintain safe and competitive U.S. and global banking systems.

The purpose of the Recovery and Resolution Preparedness Program (RRP Program) is to help ensure that LISCC firms are prepared for, and have the capabilities to manage, a severe stress and to be resolved in an orderly way without threatening financial stability.  This is achieved through staff assessments of firms’ capabilities to resolve themselves as well as the development of the Federal Reserve’s own analytical and operational preparation for a LISCC firm that is in deep stress or needs to be resolved.  In addition, the RRP Program focuses on coordination among domestic and international regulators due to the complexity of operations and cross-border presence of the LISCC firms.

Your role as an Institutional Supervision Lead Examiner:

The successful candidate will have a proven record of strong analytical skills and excellent written and verbal communication skills. The successful candidate will be able to:

• Participate in firm-specific or horizontal supervisory reviews of recovery and resolution plans;




• Assist in specific examinations to address knowledge gaps, or to review elements of firms’ resolution plans not covered in sufficient depth in previous year’s Title 1 assessment, or areas that have undergone significant remediation or change.




• Collaborate closely with other stakeholders to identify and develop supervisory responses to inherent and emerging risks that may impact resolution and recovery planning. Examples of other stakeholders include dedicated supervisory teams (DSTs), the FDIC and OCC and international supervisory bodies (PRA, ECB, etc.).




• Develop presentations and recommended messages for the RRP Steering Committee, as well as present any key divergent views to the senior stakeholders for final review and approval.




• Coordinate and collaborate with LISCC program pillars, including the Capital Program, the Liquidity Program, the Monitoring and Analysis Program (MAP) and the Governance and Controls Program (GC), by participating in firm specific and horizontal examinations across various teams.




• Serve as a subject matter expert on Recovery and Resolution topics.

What we are looking for:

• Good overall understanding of the objectives and supervisory expectations regarding firms’ recovery and resolution preparedness




• Demonstrated experience in financial risk management, liquidity experience a plus.




• Strong analytical and critical thinking skills demonstrated by the ability to assimilate information, put it in a broader context, and recommend a path forward




• Excellent communication skills, both written and oral presentation, with experience in building consensus across multiple stakeholders toward common views




• Ability to thrive as a member of a team and to build collaborative working relationships with colleagues across teams and at different levels.
