Challenge
For modern financial institutions, regulatory complexity has never been higher. Supervisory expectations continue to evolve — and the margin for interpretation has all but vanished.
Whether it’s MRAs, consent orders, supervisory letters, or regulatory transformation projects, most firms face one or more of the following:
Ambiguity around what the regulator really expects
Fragmented ownership of exam responses or remediation
Over-engineered solutions that don’t stick
“Audit-ready” documentation that doesn’t survive real scrutiny
A reactive, compliance-only posture — instead of a strategic one
This is where reputations, credibility, and billions of dollars are shaped.
Our Strategy
At Wyman Advisory, we help financial institutions turn regulatory pressure into strategic clarity.
Our regulatory advisory model is grounded in:
Deep familiarity with the supervisory styles of FRB, OCC, FDIC, CFPB, NYDFS, FCA, MAS and others
Partner-led exam readiness, narrative alignment, and document reviews
MRA/MRIA remediation planning with timelines, KPIs, and controls overlays
Target operating model design for risk, compliance, and internal audit
Board and management committee advisory on regulatory posture
Independent reviews, gap assessments, and challenge functions
Trusted mediation between regulators and business stakeholders
We don’t just translate regulation. We help you lead through it.
