Congress created the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation in 1933 to restore public confidence in the nation's
banking system. It promotes the safety and soundness of these institutions by identifying, monitoring and addressing
risks to which they are exposed. The FDIC receives no federal tax dollars — insured financial institutions fund its
operations.
FDIC press releases and other information are available on the Internet at www.fdic.gov, by subscription electronically
(go to www.fdic.gov/about/subscriptions/index.html) and may also be obtained through the FDIC's Public Information
Center (877-275-3342 or 703-562-2200). PR-67-2002
FDIC APPOINTS 43 EXECUTIVES AS PART OF UPCOMING REORGANIZATION
The FDIC has appointed 43 executives to key leadership positions as part of a major
reorganization and streamlining of operations announced by Chairman Donald E.
Powell in February. The reorganization and the appointments, which were made
through a competitive selection process, become effective June 30.
"My vision for a reorganized, refocused, accountable and more proficient FDIC is taking
shape," Chairman Powell said today. "With these selections, the FDIC now has in place
the management structure and team to put a greater percentage of our resources on
the line, where our most critical work gets done."
Division of Supervision and Consumer Protection (DSC)
Thirty-one appointments result from the upcoming merger of the Division of Supervision
(DOS) and the Division of Compliance and Consumer Affairs (DCA) into a new Division
of Supervision and Consumer Protection (DSC). That merger is intended to streamline
operations, reduce overhead, emphasize cross-disciplinary approaches and improve
customer service in the supervision of state nonmember banks for both safety-and-
soundness and consumer law compliance.
Michael J. Zamorski, currently Director of DOS and DCA, will serve as Director of
DSC. He will be assisted by four members of the DSC senior management
team: George French, currently Deputy Director of the FDIC Division of Insurance
(DOI), will be Deputy Director for Policy and Examination Oversight. Donna J.
Gambrell, currently DCA Deputy Director, will be Deputy Director for Compliance and
Consumer Protection. John M. Lane, currently DOS Assistant Director, Risk
Management and Applications, will be Deputy Director for Risk Management. Sandra L.
Thompson, currently DOS Assistant Director, Electronic Banking, will be Associate
Director for Special Projects.
The following officials also were named to the DSC executive team in
Washington: Miguel D. Browne, currently DOS Manager for Policy, Risk Management
