The Power of Oversight: Examining Compliance and Consumer Protection

Disclaimer: The views expressed are of my own, Wendy Shoniregun, and do not necessarily reflect official positions of the Federal Reserve System. On this episode of MY GRC POV, I sat down with Wendy Shoniregun, the Director of Examinations and Consumer Affairs at the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas. From humble beginnings in a small-town bank to leading with purpose in one of the nation’s most influential financial institutions, Wendy shares not only her impressive journey but the heartbeat behind her work—people.

Together, we explored the layers of governance, risk, and compliance (GRC) that often go unseen. Wendy broke down the misconceptions many institutions have about examinations, emphasizing that it's not about punishment but about accountability, transparency, and growth.
