WASHINGTON — The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency announced today that Ron Pasch has been named Deputy Comptroller for the International Banking Supervision (IBS) group within Large Bank Supervision.

In this position, Mr. Pasch is responsible for coordinating key international supervisory activities of the OCC, including supervision of federal branches and agencies and their affiliated national banks.  As part of the OCC’s Large Bank Supervision Program, IBS serves as the primary point of contact for international banking supervisors, and as a clearing house for international requests for supervisory information, bilateral meetings, and participation in international working groups.

“Ron brings a wealth of experience to this position and to the Large Bank Supervision leadership team,” said Senior Deputy Comptroller for Large Bank Supervision Mike Brosnan.  “We are fortunate to be able to call upon an individual with such expertise for this important role.”

Mr. Pasch has served as Associate Deputy Comptroller in the Northeastern District since July 2011, and will be rejoining Large Bank Supervision where he spent the previous 12 years in various positions including Examiner-in-Charge of the OCC’s London office and team leader for commercial credit on the JPMorgan Chase resident examination team.  

During his 26 year career at the OCC, Mr. Pasch also worked in a variety of capacities in the field and at OCC headquarters, including the development of policy and supervisory guidance in the Treasury and Market Risk Division in the late 1990s.  He joined the OCC in Sioux City, Iowa, in 1986 and became a commissioned national bank examiner in 1990.  

Mr. Pasch is a graduate of the University of Wisconsin—River Falls, and has earned the GARP Financial Risk Manager and the Chartered Financial Analyst designations.
