Remember this one? Former OCC, OTS & Fannie Executive Joined MERSCORP in 2011
American Banker-
Amy Friend, the former chief counsel of the Senate Banking Committee who helped draft the Dodd-Frank financial reform law, is expected to rejoin the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency as its top lawyer, according to sources.
Friend will succeed Julie Williams, who was forced out by Comptroller Tom Curry last year after serving 19 years as the agency’s chief counsel.
The move is effectively a trade between the OCC and Promontory Financial Group, where Friend has been working for the past two years as a managing director. The consulting firm announced last week that Williams would start Monday as head of its domestic advisory practice. Friend, in turn, is expected to start shortly at the OCC.
