Melinda C. Albert, Cipp/E Email & Phone Number

I am a U.S. licensed attorney and trusted business advisor with 20+ years of diverse and progressively responsible legal practice experience. I began my legal career handling complex civil and commercial litigation, regulatory enforcement matters, and internal investigations. After ten years working in private practice, at both a large international and a boutique law firm, I transitioned my legal career in-house to the financial services industry. I have spent more than 13 years as an in-house lawyer working at two of the world's largest financial institutions in both New York City and London. I have international work experience and have held roles with both U.S. and global/international remits. I have demonstrated success in developing and strengthening risk and control frameworks, defending high-profile litigation, engaging with prudential regulators, and executing transformation/strategic initiatives. As a change agent, I have extensive experience in building and leading legal teams across business lines and geographies, designing and restructuring programs, processes, frameworks, and business models, launching new products and services, and providing advice on risk and compliance issues. I am a thought leader and effective communicator, who is adept at building consensus, forging alliances, and leading and galvanizing teams in heavily matrixed multinational organizations.Risk Management | Business Operations | Transformation | Governance | Supervisory Examinations | Strategic Initiatives Commercial Law | Audit | Fintech | Internal Investigations | Remediation Regulatory Affairs | Payments | Compliance | Data Privacy | Corporate Law |Complex Litigation | Regulatory Enforcement | Crisis Management
