ModernFi helps banks and financial institutions manage funding and balance sheets. It provides advisory services and allocates funds to FDIC-member banks, guiding funding markets and asset-liability management. The process involves offering insights, controls, processes, monitoring, and educational materials to help clients conduct due diligence and manage third-party risks, while charging consulting, management, and performance-based fees. ModernFi is not a bank and does not offer deposits; instead, it works with FDIC-insured banks to support their funding needs. The company differentiates itself by focusing on specialized funding-market strategies for institutional clients and by combining advisory services with fund allocation to optimize balance sheets and regulatory compliance. Its goal is to simplify complex funding and ALM topics for banks, helping them improve financial health while managing risk.

Experienced regulator and risk leader, Gale Simons-Poole, joins modernfi as Head of Regulatory Affairs. Longtime regulatory leader to further strengthen ModernFi's financial services governance, risk management, and regulatory relationships as the company continues to scale NEW YORK, NY - ModernFi, the leading technology provider for deposit management, today announced the appointment of Gale Simons-Poole, a distinguished leader in financial risk management and regulatory oversight, as Head of Regulatory Affairs. Mrs. Simons-Poole most recently served as Chief Risk Officer at BHG Financial, where she led regulatory and compliance matters for BHG lending programs and scaled BHG's enterprise risk program. Prior to BHG, she spent seven years with Promontory Financial Group, advising bank clients from community to money center banks, nonbank lenders, fintech companies, and financial services organizations. Gale's extensive experience in bank supervision includes 24 years with the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) where she was a Deputy Regional Director in Risk Management Supervision. In this capacity, she oversaw risk management for several southeastern states and gained recognition for her expertise in supervisory and compliance matters. "I am thrilled to join the ModernFi team at this critical time as the company scales its deposit network services with hundreds of financial institutions," said Mrs. Simons-Poole. "I look forward to further strengthening ModernFi's regulatory relationships and risk programs and building on the company's mission to help financial institutions compete, grow, and thrive in an ever evolving regulatory landscape." Mrs. Simons-Poole joins a team deeply focused on delivering the highest standards of compliance, governance, and safety. She will work closely with current ModernFi board advisors and former regulators, Rodney Hood, former Acting Comptroller of the Currency and former NCUA Chairman, and Gene Ludwig, 27th Comptroller of the Currency, to further deepen ModernFi's compliance and regulatory framework. Through her time working with banks at the FDIC and Promontory, she has gained unique insight into the challenges financial institutions face of managing business risk and evolving technology solutions. "Gale's deep regulatory and industry experience will be invaluable as ModernFi's growth continues to accelerate," said Paolo Bertolotti, Cofounder and CEO of ModernFi. "She brings extensive knowledge of portfolio management, regulatory supervision, and enterprise risk management. We are beyond excited to welcome Gale to the team and for her to continue our focus on advancing our compliance and regulatory affairs within the financial services ecosystem." During her time with the FDIC, she completed Harvard's John F Kennedy School of Government Federal Executive Leadership Program and the FDIC's Women's Executive Leadership Program. Gale holds an MBA from Louisiana Tech University and a bachelor's degree from Black Hills State University.
