Tracy Raben, OCC – From Hire to Retire: Talent Management and Culture Transformation
“We start with the business strategy, align that with the goals and objectives, then align the employees with the goals and objectives of the organization, to help everyone understand the big picture and your role in it, and ultimately how you are going to be evaluated, recognized and rewarded for your performance and contributions.”
From a full management makeover to a change in its capital structure to its recent designation as a systemically important financial market utility, OCC, the central clearing organization for the U.S. options markets, has undergone sweeping changes in the last few years. These changes have required OCC to aggressively ramp up its compliance, risk and systems departments.
The task has been quite a challenge for Tracy Raben, chief human resource officer, who is in charge of pulling together the right mix of people, developing talent and keeping employees aligned with the company vision. Oh, yeah. She also needs to help the team maintain a healthy work/life balance.
According to Raben, these are the components of a high-performance culture.

TradFi

TradFi, an abbreviation for Traditional Finance, refers to the conventional financial system and institutions that have been established over centuries. This term has gained prominence in recent years as a way to distinguish established financial practices from emerging alternatives, particularly in the context of cryptocurrency and decentralized finance (DeFi). TradFi encompasses a wide range of financial services and institutions, including commercial and investment banks, stock exchanges, insurance companies, brokerage firms, and government financial regulators. These entities operate within a centralized framework, typically governed by national and international regulations.
== Key Characteristics ==
The key characteristics of TradFi include centralization, where financial transactions and services are typically managed by centralized institutions; regulatory oversight, with operations subject to strict government regulations; the use of intermediaries such as banks, clearinghouses, and brokers; established infrastructure relying on long-standing technological and operational systems; and the primary use of fiat currencies for transactions. These features often contrast sharply with those of Decentralized Finance (DeFi) systems, which are typically decentralized, self-governed, more accessible and faster in transaction processing.
== Advantages of TradFi ==
Despite the emergence of alternative financial systems, TradFi maintains several advantages. These include regulatory protection offering consumer safeguards and deposit insurance in many jurisdictions, established trust built over time by long-standing institutions, widespread acceptance of services and currencies, and relative stability compared to newer financial systems. 
== Challenges and Criticisms ==
However, TradFi also faces challenges and criticisms in the modern financial landscape, including inefficiencies in certain processes (particularly cross-border transactions), exclusivity that may limit access to financial services for certain populations, centralization risks that can lead to systemic vulnerabilities, and potential lack of innovation compared to newer financial technologies.
