Profile
Riley Key’s practice focuses on counseling clients facing regulatory, compliance, and enforcement challenges. Riley is a member of Bradley’s Banking and Financial Services Practice Group. Through his broad range of experience, he assists clients in ensuring that their operations are in compliance with federal and state laws and that they are able to successfully demonstrate their compliance to federal and state regulators.
Riley focuses a substantial portion of his practice on assisting clients as they prepare for and work through federal and state-specific examinations. This work has included conducting risk assessments, responding to requests for additional information, self-disclosing issues, working with examiners during on-site reviews, challenging examination findings, responding to supervisory letters, and, where appropriate, resolving issues through settlement.
Riley also frequently represents clients in regulatory compliance matters where he works closely with business, legal, and compliance leaders to identify compliance issues and develop workable solutions. By combining his compliance background and experience with examinations and regulatory enforcement matters, he is able to provide unique, practical insights regarding regulatory expectations and industry practices. As part of his compliance practice, Riley also provides general and targeted compliance training for various industry personnel, including boards of directors, legal and compliance personnel, and line-level employees.
