David Silberman, who has served as the CFPB’s Associate Director for Research, Markets, and Regulations since 2011, announced that he has left the agency to become a part-time senior advisor to both the Center for Responsible Lending and the Financial Solutions Lab of the Financial Health Network and a member of FinRegLab’s group of advisors. He will also teach a course on consumer finance regulation at Georgetown’s McCourt School of Public Policy and at Harvard Law School in the next academic year.
Mr. Silberman also served as CFPB Acting Deputy Director after former Director Cordray appointed him to that position following the resignation in 2015 of former Deputy Director Steven Antonakes.
