OBSI announces search for two new board members

We will soon be launching a search for two qualified professionals to join our Board of Directors to fill one current and one expected vacancy. The positions to be filled are for one Industry Director and one Consumer Interest Director. To ensure an open search process and that we are able to identify the best candidates, as part of our search process, we will engage with industry associations and consumer advocacy groups for potential candidate recommendations. 

Board composition 

OBSI has a 10-member board of which the majority (seven) are independent community directors. Three of the community directors are designated as consumer interest directors, who are selected for their experience in engaging in consumer advocacy in the banking, financial services or other sectors.  

OBSI’s board also includes three designated industry director positions. Industry directors are selected for their experience and knowledge in one or more of the financial industry sectors that OBSI members operate in and must be directly affiliated with a participating firm at the time of their appointment or within the two preceding years. 

Details of these opportunities will be posted soon on our website here.
