In March, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency—the powerful federal banking regulator—tapped Prashant Kumar Bhardwaj as the first person to lead its mission to police fintech firms and the banks that power them.
On the surface, Bhardwaj seemed to be well qualified to be the OCC’s new deputy comptroller and chief financial technology officer. He had held a series of senior roles at big banks and consulting firms over three decades, according to the resume he submitted when applying for the job, which The Information obtained through a Freedom of Information request.
There’s just one problem: The resume was full of lies.
