Maryann Kennedy has been named the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency’s (OCC) Senior Deputy Comptroller for Large Bank Supervision.
“Maryann brings great experience and talent to this new role as well as a passion for the OCC and its people to our Executive Committee team,” Joseph Otting, Comptroller of the Currency, said.
Kennedy fills the vacancy left by Morris Morgan who became the OCC’s Chief Operating Officer in January 2019. She will direct nearly 800 men and women who supervise the country’s largest national banks and federal branches and agencies, which hold more than $10 trillion in total consolidated assets.
During her tenure with the OCC officials said Kennedy supervised banks of all types and sizes, having served as Deputy Comptroller for Large Bank Supervision since June 2015, overseeing the examination teams of a portfolio of large banks and Examiner-in-Charge for JPMorgan Chase and TD Bank.
Kennedy began her career at the the OCC in 1991 in the Philadelphia field office, officials said, after eight years in the banking industry and was commissioned a National Bank Examiner in 1997.
As a field examiner, officials said Kennedy worked in community, midsize and large banks and has held a variety of management roles, including Assistant Deputy Comptroller for the Wilkes-Barre and the Washington, D.C., field offices.
