It is good to see that the downturn in employment is being counteracted by robust hiring and promotion in the cost-plus, quasi-governmental, financial service sector, or more specifically, a bull market in central banks managing subidies to the banking sector.
It appears that this flurry of promotions and hiring is for the new group that will oversee the bank's investments in Maiden Lane III and of course, AIG.
Ah, to be employed in a cost plus monopoly. What a sinecure.

The Bank’s board of directors promoted Sarah J. Dahlgren to executive vice president and named her as head of the new group. She will also become a member of the Bank’s Management Committee.
This move represents an additional enhancement to the Bank’s governance and risk management in light of the tremendous expansion of the Bank’s balance sheet over the past eighteen months by separating out the management of the new investments from the Bank’s financial risk management.

Previously, Ms. Dahlgren was responsible for the Bank Supervision Group’s information technology and payments systems exam programs, as well as its Year 2000 readiness efforts....

“Thus, it should be understood that when pro-US figures use the term, 'rules-based international order,' they are not referring to anything analogous to the rule of law. Quite the opposite, they are using Orwellian language to describe a system in which essentially no rules can be established and/or observed, given that the dominant state has the prerogative to violate and/or rewrite “rules” at its whim.” Aaron Good, American Exception
