People on the Move: Jennifer Shasky Calvery, FinCEN
Jennifer Shasky Calvery will leave her position as director of the Treasury Department’s Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) at the end of May. Calvery has served as FinCEN director since September 2012, and previously spent more than 15 years at the DOJ, where she focused largely on combating financial crime. Under her leadership, FinCEN has increased its use of technology to leverage data and address threats to the U.S. financial system using targeted regulatory initiatives. Calvery also has led FinCEN’s cooperation with international agencies and governments to combat cross-border financial crimes and has strongly advocated for using the agency’s authority to enhance transparency in the financial system—particularly in the area of identifying true ownership of shell companies, according to the agency.
