WASHINGTON, D.C. — The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) has named David G. Hammaker Deputy Comptroller for Compliance Operations. In this new position, Mr. Hammaker serves as principal advisor to OCC senior management on consumer compliance examination and CRA examination activities.

"The two-way feedback we'll receive will help us to align policy with practical applications in a timely and efficient way."

He previously held a variety of positions including field manager in Pittsburgh and Philadelphia; large bank EIC of PNC Bank Corp; consumer compliance examiner; and, consumer EIC for both Mellon and PNC. For a number of years, he coordinated consumer compliance and CRA activities for the Northeastern District's regional banks and developed analytical tools for assessing bank CRA performance.
