Senior-Level Risk and Compliance Expertise, Start to Finish

Risk, compliance, and governance for financial services

Led by founder Lynne Clyde, former SVP and Global Head of Regulatory, Policy & Strategy at State Street

Your regulators expect a program that works. Your board expects clear oversight. Your business needs to keep moving. RCG Consulting helps banks, credit unions, lenders, and other financial services companies build, fix, and strengthen their risk and compliance programs — whether you're responding to an exam or audit finding, supporting new leadership that wants to raise the bar, selecting and implementing new technology, or bringing programs together after a merger. We bring a clear and methodical approach to identifying and prioritizing the risks that matter most, and senior-level judgment for the entire engagement.

The Result: Programs that are pragmatic, right-sized to your risk profile, and built to work for your business and to meet supervisory expectations.

Meet Lynne

“You get the partner’s time and senior experience for maybe 5% of your engagement. And then you’re left with junior consultants who don’t have practical industry experience … Companies deserve better.”

Lynne founded RCG so clients have senior expertise throughout the engagement, not simply at the beginning.
