Delaware Gov. Matt Meyer recently nominated Lisa Collison to serve as the next state bank commissioner.
“Delaware’s financial strength depends on strong, fair, and forward-looking oversight,” Meyer said. “Lisa Collison brings experience, integrity, and a clear understanding of how to protect consumers while positioning Delaware to lead again in financial services. I’m proud to nominate her as our next state bank commissioner.”
Collison has an accounting background and three decades of experience and has served in multiple regulatory and supervisory roles including bank examiner, chief bank examiner, review examiner, and senior deputy bank commissioner within the Delaware Office of the State Bank Commissioner.
Her experience includes both traditional banking institutions and nonbank financial entities, and she has played a central role in supervising financial institutions, enforcing the state banking code, and ensuring compliance with state and federal regulations.
If confirmed by the state Senate, Collison will be tasked with advancing the Office of the State Bank Commissioner’s mission of pairing innovation and growth with accountability and consumer protection.
The state bank commissioner ensures the strength, stability and integrity of Delaware’s financial system by administering and enforcing the state banking code, overseeing financial institutions chartered or licensed in Delaware, and ensuring institutions are rigorously examined.
