The consent order reads that Green “engaged in violations of law, engaged in reckless unsafe or unsound practices, and breached his fiduciary duties to the Bank. (Green) demonstrated personal dishonesty, willful or continuing disregard for the safety and soundness of the Bank, and a reckless disregard for the law.”

According to the consent order:

  • In October 2016, Green obtained a $75,000 loan from the bank using a director of the bank as a borrower in name only. Green did not disclose that he was the intended beneficiary and caused the bank to approve the loan using inaccurate loan documents
  • Around 2019, Green did not disclose that he secured a bank loan in the name of a bank customer to purchase of residential property for himself.
  • On at least 10 occasions between June 2016 and October 2018, Green provided inaccurate loan information when he knowingly gave borrowers unsecured or partially secured real estate loans to cover down payments and closing costs.
