CSBS supports state-federal coordination across a range of supervisory and regulatory structures and work streams. Decades of engagement with the federal banking agencies informed CSBS’s efforts to ensure that the law creating the CFPB codified coordination with state regulators. For more than a decade, the states have been leaning into that partnership through supervisory efforts, information sharing, and enforcement through a coordinated supervision framework and information sharing agreements.

State financial regulators and the state regulatory perspective also are integrated into regulatory councils and committees. The key interagency bodies and state regulatory participants are: 

Financial Stability Oversight Council

A body chaired by the U.S. Treasury Secretary to monitor for risks to the financial system’s stability. 

• New York State Department of Financial Services Superintendent Adrienne Harris
