Excerpts from Comptroller Gould’s remarks are below. His full statement can be found here. A large bank and a small military bank may operate on very different scales, but both play an important role in supporting the financial strength of our nation. And both deserve a supervisory framework that allows them to serve their customers, manage their risks, and grow responsibly. We recognize that your banks are the lifeblood of the Main Street economy. You are responsible for providing small businesses and hardworking families across the country with the financial services they need to access the world’s greatest economy. And we are committed to making it easier for you to do exactly that.
