Protégé Selection

Mentor

A mentor can have more than one protégé at any time. A potential mentor can initiate the process or the protégé may select their mentor on their own through relations with Banking and Financial Institutions. Either entity may reach out to Fiscal Service for help in finding an enthusiastic partner who is a good fit and respectful of the process.

The mentor bank or a Treasury representative will perform a needs assessment to identify the protégé’s current capabilities and potential areas of opportunity. A mentor may select a protégé based on a current or new relationship, hopefully creating a beneficial relationship for both protégés and mentors.

Protégé

A protégé shall not have more than one mentor at a time. The mentor is solely responsible for selecting a protégé with whom they believe they can develop a successful business relationship. The mentor bank or a Bank Policy and Oversight representative will perform a needs assessment to identify the protégé’s current capabilities and potential areas of opportunity. A protégé may be recommended to a mentor based on the results of the assessment and the expertise of the mentor.
