Vice Chairman, BNY Mellon "Confidence is what leadership is really all about. " • Generates roughly half of BNY Mellon's pretax income • Manages a third of its 52,000 employees in 115 cities around the globe • Is the first female vice chairman in the company's 227-year history • Started, and still leads, the bank's wildly successful women's network. It's easy to prove Karen Peetz is powerful in the traditional sense of the word.

She generates roughly half of BNY Mellon's pretax income. She manages a third of its 52,000 employees in 115 cities around the globe. She is the first female vice chairman in the company's 227-year history. But Peetz's power goes far beyond the standard definition. She is a connector of people and ideas. It is no exaggeration to say Peetz has inspired generations of women in financial services and beyond.

What may stand out most is how effortless Peetz's success appears. Peetz is one of the rare executives who excel at both the soft and hard sides of business.

News from 2010 This has been a much better year than last – which I guess (at least, I hope) was my annus horribilis – can’t imagine a worse time than spring/summer of 2009! After the effort of 5 years writingMarket Risk Analysis, I’ve been focussing my academic work on research. It was a great pleasure to have an academic visitor, Professor José María Sarabia, a renowned Statistician from the University of Cantabria, doing some interesting joint work on generalized beta generated distributions and their applications.

We became firm friends and I look forward to continuing our research. No less than six of my PhD students graduated this year. I am glad to see they are all happy in their jobs, still very close to ‘home’. Several papers have been published or accepted from their theses but we’ll be involved with writing up further papers on all this research until well into 2012.

My work for the Professional Risk Manager’s International Association (PRMIA) has been very time consuming.

Finance. Regulations Smothering Small Banks | William Isaac. Regulations Smothering Small Banks Posted: Apr 4, 2011 by William M. Isaac & Robert H Smith for American Banker Everyone has an interest in policies that will foster a strong economy and sustainable job growth. While some steps have been taken, we are not getting the job done. Over half of U.S. job growth is initiated by small businesses.

In recent years, many of our larger companies have been a declining source of new jobs due to outsourcing key elements of manufacturing, assembly, customer service, and technology functions to lower cost countries. While many factors stimulate small business creation and growth there are three overarching prerequisites: 1) confidence in the future, 2) available capital, and 3) access to credit. Business and investor confidence remains very weak and improvement depends on an improved regulatory climate and sound monetary, fiscal, and tax policies.

Our government’s “one size fits all” mentality has a disproportionate effect on the smallest banks. Mr.

TED. Religion (people) Rick Bookstaber. FDIC Isaac Remarks at Roundtable on Brokered Deposits | William Isaac. FDIC Isaac Remarks at Roundtable on Brokered Deposits Posted: Mar 18, 2011 During my tenure as Chairman of the FDIC, the practice of money brokers bundling vast sums of money from investors and placing those funds in high-risk banks and S&Ls paying the highest interest rates cost the FDIC and taxpayers tens of billions of dollars in losses. The FDIC had a similar experience with brokered funds during the most recent crisis.

It was my honor to participate in an FDIC Roundtable on this subject on March 18, 2011. The agenda of that Roundtable is below followed by my opening remarks. After my remarks, I have included my testimony on the subject at four different Senate and House hearings during 1983 and 1985. Thirty years after this problem surfaced, Congress has yet to deal effectively with this abuse of the deposit insurance system. March 18, 2011 Washington, DC Our intention was to allow the free market to operate. The flood gates were open. It did not need to happen. David R. Koenig. Bert Ely | Washington Association of Money Managers. Bert Ely has specialized in deposit insurance and banking structure issues since 1981. As the S&L situation worsened, he became in 1986 one of the first persons to publicly predict a taxpayer bailout of the FSLIC. In 1991, he was the first person to correctly predict the non-crisis in commercial banking; in 1992, he predicted the forthcoming taxpayer bailout of the Japanese banking system.

In recent years Bert has been sounding the alarm about the financial risks posed to taxpayers by the two government-sponsored enterprises Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. He has co-authored two monographs on Fannie and Freddie issues that were published by the American Enterprise Institute, and has testified before Congress about the Fannie/Freddie problem. On an ongoing basis, he monitors conditions in the banking and thrift industries, the growing politicization of the credit allocation process, and issues involving monetary policy and the payments system.
