Anchorage Digital Bank, America’s first federally chartered digital asset bank, has appointed Rachel Anderika as its first chief risk officer. Aderika, who worked at the OCC as a bank examiner, was most recently at Promontory Financial Group, a bank regulatory consulting firm owned by IBM. She helped found Promontory’s digital assets risk and compliance team, where she guided digital assets custodians through the state and federal regulatory licensing process while implementing risk and compliance programs to meet regulatory expectations. Additionally, she helped develop the first-ever crypto-specific bank supervisory guidance with the Wyoming Division of Banking.
