The Treasury Department’s Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) reached agreements with two banks over concerns related to risk governance practices.
Michigan-based Comerica Bank & Trust and Illinois-based Lemont National Bank avoided penalties but accepted certain compliance undertakings in reaching agreements with the OCC announced Thursday.
The OCC found unsafe and unsound practices at Comerica related to the bank’s risk governance framework and internal controls. At Lemont, the agency found similar deficiencies related to liquidity risk management and capital planning.
