Welcome to the Great Women in Compliance Podcast!

In this episode, Lisa visits with Amy Mertz Brown, the SVP Chief Compliance and Privacy Officer at BECU.

Amy started her career in the US government, where she was one of the first leaders at the  Consumer Financial Protection Bureau and was formerly the Chief Compliance Officer at the US Securities and Exchange Commission.  She discusses the similarities and differences between her government and in-house regulatory experiences, and the importance of specific training and detailed work instructions in highly regulated industries.

Amy also shares how she has built her career, and what she views as important in deciding on taking on a new role. Amy and Lisa also talk about Reshma Saujani’s views about imposter syndrome, rather than looking at the reasons someone feels like an imposter and questioning the concept and how it impacts women.

Key Highlights:

  • Regulatory Compliance in the Government and in the Private Sector
  • Regulatory Compliance Through Monitoring and Training
