Making The Financial System Safer And Fairer, Federal Reserve Vice Chair For Supervision Michael S. Barr, At The Brookings Institution, Washington, D.C.

<p><span>Thank you, David, and thank you to the Brookings Institution for the invitation to speak to you today.</span><span>&nbsp;On July 19, I had the honor of being sworn in as the Vice Chair for Supervision of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. This job was created after the Global Financial Crisis to lead the Fed's work overseeing the safety and soundness of banks and in support of its financial stability mandate. In the 12 years since then, great progress has been made in strengthening the banking system, and in strengthening oversight. I look forward to building on that work by helping to make the financial system safer and fairer, in support of an economy that serves the needs of households and businesses.</span></p>
