Wells Fargo & Co. must fix its governance and risk-management issues, the chairman of the US Senate Banking Committee said, highlighting what he called a “laundry list” of consumer abuses and compliance breakdowns.<\/p>\n

The bank has been plagued by weaknesses in its governance and risk-management practices for nearly a decade, Sherrod Brown (D., Ohio) said in an open letter sent Tuesday to Wells Fargo Chief Executive Charles Scharf.<\/p>\n

“It is clear that Wells Fargo still has a long way to go to fix its governance and risk management before it should be allowed to grow in size,” Sen. Brown wrote. “It is unacceptable that after years of failed attempts, nothing seems to have improved.”<\/p>\n

Sen. Brown highlighted a $ 7 million penalty the US Securities and Exchange Commission imposed on a Wells Fargo unit earlier this month for violations of anti-money-laundering rules. Wells Fargo also was fined $ 250 million in September for its failure to address longstanding problems in its mortgage business.<\/p>\n

Sen. Brown also pointed to a recent news report in which a former employee alleged that Wells Fargo conducted fake interviews of Black and female job applicants to give a false impression that it was trying to diversify its workforce.<\/p>\n

Wells Fargo’s failure to combat alleged lending discrimination and increase diversity among its staff raised questions about the bank’s ability to address “myriad internal controls, risk management and general governance issues,” Sen. Brown said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n
