Kevin Stiroh, EVP and Head of Supervision

When we hosted our first conference on reforming culture and behavior in the financial services industry in 2014, significant dialogue around misconduct risk, culture, and supervision didn’t exist. Now, as we prepare to host our fourth event on the topic on June 18, supervision is an accepted and critical part of the global conversation on cultural reform in finance.

Brian Manning, Media Relations Associate, Communications and Outreach

On June 18, the New York Fed will host its fourth conference focused on reforming culture and behavior in the financial services industry. Speakers and panelists will look at progress to date and the challenges ahead, building on the conversation that started with our first event in 2014.

Earlier this week, New York Fed President Bill Dudley participated in a panel discussion on culture and conduct in the financial services industry. This conversation should serve to remind us that while the industry has made progress on the issue, significant work still remains to promote accountability, ethical conduct, and open dialogue and diversity of thought. As we continue to consider these questions, I thought I’d share my perspective on how lawyers can play a critical role in shaping an institution’s culture.

William C. Dudley, President

A few weeks ago, we held our third conference at the New York Fed on reforming culture in financial services. Leading up to the conference, we shared some of what our moderators and participants were hoping to discuss throughout the day. Now that the conference is over, I wanted to take a few moments to discuss some of what we heard.
