Financial Institution Supervision and Culture

October 20, 2016, will mark three years since the Federal Reserve Bank of New York hosted its first conference on Reforming Culture and Behavior in the Financial Services Industry. While we have seen varied progress across the industry in addressing the issue, the persistence of misconduct and unacceptable behavior continues to raise serious questions for supervisors of financial institutions.

Banking and Finance: A Global Perspective

Reforming the culture of banking is necessary to support the long-term health of our financial system. Without good culture shaped by appropriate incentives, we can’t have the consistent good conduct we should expect and deserve. We cannot continue on the present course. We know this, the public knows this and so do many in the industry. Continuing instances of misconduct highlight the need for attention to this issue and raise the question of whether the largest firms are “too big to manage.” I remain convinced, however, that when the will is there, meaningful improvement is possible.
