The Financial Services Committee, led by Chairman Patrick McHenry, has released a final staff report investigating the workplace culture at the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) under Chair Martin Gruenberg. The report highlights a toxic work environment, prompting calls for Gruenberg's resignation from several committee members, including Representative Fitzgerald. During a recent hearing, Representative Frank Lucas criticized a proposed board governance rule by the FDIC, arguing it would compromise risk management practices and increase risks within the banking system. Additionally, Representative Beatty pointed out perceived hypocrisy among GOP members regarding accountability for misconduct, contrasting past FDIC issues with current allegations against President-elect nominees.
