Learn about Angela Kennamer, Vice President, Counterparty Risk Management for LoanCare, and TPRA's WNTPRM October 2026 Leader Spotlight. < See All < Previous Next > Angela Kennamer Vice President, Counterparty Risk Management LoanCare Biography Angela Kennamer is a Third-Party Risk Management leader with more than 20 years' experience in the financial services industry. She began her career in the mortgage industry, which led to her involvement in outsourcing, and ultimately to third-party risk management even before it was the discipline it is today. She currently serves as Vice President of Counterparty Risk Management, where she leads the design, execution, and continuous improvement of risk management programs that encompass any external entity with which LoanCare has a contractual, financial, or operational dependency. Angela specializes in building and leading regulatory compliant third-party risk programs, with deep expertise in applicable regulatory frameworks. Throughout her career, she has partnered with cross-functional teams to design and implement scalable programs that align with business objectives and an ever-evolving regulatory landscape. She is passionate about leading high performing teams with care and respect, continuous education and improvement on both a personal and professional level and building programs that meet the needs of all stakeholders. Angela holds a Master of Business Administration from Jacksonville University and a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration from The College of New Jersey. Leadership Characteristics Integrity - doing the right thing, even when it is difficult or inconvenient Accountability - owning outcomes, not passing blame, and being ok with making a mistake Problem solving - finding solutions and staying calm when things are going sideways Leadership Challenges Managing different priorities and personalities and navigating organizational politics have been my biggest challenges, but also my biggest accomplishments. TPRM is unique in that it touches every corner of your business operations, and every corner of your risk and compliance framework. Being able to navigate through all of those competing priorities while maintaining the framework of TPRM requirements is not easy and takes intention and perseverance. In my career I have been a part of teams that have built, implemented, and/or improved TPRM programs in environments where there has not always been the necessary top-down support, so creating or driving that support both up and down the organization is a key driver for success. Key Take-a-ways Keep your perspective. At the end of the day, we are not saving lives here. It may seem like things are going sideways at times, but keeping a calm head will instill and inspire confidence in you and those around you. Sleeping well at night is important. I got this one from one of my leaders. If you can sleep at night, then you can feel pretty confident that you are doing the right thing. Everyone has positive intentions. If you remember that that is what drives most people in the workplace, then it becomes easier to navigate different or difficult personalities. Fun Fact Aside from TPRM some things I am passionate about include: cooking, cruises, Disney World, reality television, romance novels, and New Kids on the Block. :)

Strategic thinker and problem solver Creative approaches to assist leadership in decision making Uses unique learning approaches to explore complex concepts such as: Gamification strategies, Employing use of tools that aid in learning like microsimulations Relationship builder Leadership Challenges Donna made the transition from supporting government entities to commercial business. This is a vast difference in approach when having gone from Federal, State, and local support to the commercial space where you have to market, brand, and sell products. Having shifted from the federal arena, she has also experienced working internationally both with governments and private sector entities. This has presented much larger compliance differences, cultural nuances, and challenges that she rapidly overcame and delivered successfully on for several international clients. Her ability to work with clients in multiple time zones and present online training to employees from different cultures earned her recognition from many clients in the international space. She led teams and projects to success through challenging threat incidents and events. One of the biggest challenges she sees consistently in this space is still knocking down silos across an enterprise and building a risk culture across the entirety of an organization. Key Take-a-ways "I am very intrigued by the risk AI poses to our industry. The speed at which AI is evolving is incredible. I think our industry is largely unprepared for what is to come. It’s not a matter of AI replacing our jobs - but more if we don’t adopt AI we will be replaced. AI is the new black. We should be continuously learning in our space to begin with and AI is no exception to that. It will be interesting to see how AI risk is managed in different organizations and how it aligns with regulations and compliance. If an organization is too conservative to adapt AI, just know, competitors, your third parties, fourth parties are using AI as are your employees just not in your secure space. Also regulators want to know how your organization is reviewing AI Risk." "I was once called a Resilience Unicorn. I suspect this is because I am a little ADHD, though it’s probably due to the wide skillset I have as a resilience professional. You have to be truly a jack of all trades in our profession. I definitely am always looking to do more, understand more. Constantly learn. Not everyone gets that. I am excited for what AI is going to do in our space. How it will evolve risk management. But we also need to think once we get more time as AI is adapted, what can I do now as a human that cannot be replaced by machine." Fun Fact Donna was raised in Heidelberg, Germany and lived there for 18 years. She produced an award-winning docuseries on childhood cancer, and as a result, is on IMDB.
