FRB And Canadian Enforcement
The FRB has joined with the Canadian Office of the Superintendent of Financial Institutions (OFSI) to take an enforcement action involving the Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce. Both supervisory agencies had concerns about the Toronto-based bank's dealings with Enron and the related exposure to risk. Under the agreement, the bank must hire an auditor acceptable to both supervisory agencies and, following an agreed-upon protocol, submit quarterly audit reports to the agencies. The bank must also develop policies and procedures to prevent unsafe and unsound practices and demonstrate that it is following the new procedures.
