The NYDFS consent order describes EXECUTIVE-2 as "the Bank's COO of its Wealth Management Americas group." Patrick Harris's email signature reads:
"Patrick Harris | Chief Operating Officer | Wealth Management - Americas"
Deutsche Bank / Asset & Wealth Management
345 Park Avenue, 27th fl., New York, NY 10154

Patrick E Harris's LinkedIn profile (linkedin.com/in/patrickeharris) confirms:
"Chief Operating Officer, Private Wealth Management — Americas, Deutsche Bank, Dec 2009 – Mar 2017, 7 years 4 months"
This publicly confirms Harris held the exact COO PWM Americas title from December 2009 through March 2017 — covering the entire Epstein banking relationship (account opening March 2013 through his departure March 2017). The consent order's EXECUTIVE-2 must have been in role during both the April 2013 onboarding and the January 2015 ARRC escalation. Harris's tenure covers both.

Harris reportedly worked on the same floor as Paul Morris (RM-1) at 345 Park Avenue (sourcing pending). The consent order describes EXECUTIVE-2 as receiving the onboarding memorandum and later receiving AML escalation emails. Physical proximity is consistent with close operational involvement.
EFTA01388024 (June 22, 2017): Darnetta Chandler-Johnson sends KYC assignment email to Cynthia Rodriguez, CC's Stewart Oldfield and Patrick Harris. The email concerns KYC Case #1790655 for "Jeffrey Epstein, Southern Financial LLC, Southern Trust Company, Inc. and J. Epstein Virgin Islands Foundation, Inc."
This shows Harris in the oversight chain for Epstein entity compliance reviews as late as 2017.
"Patrick Harris" + "Epstein" = 10 DugganUSA hits — moderate presence in Epstein-related documents.
WHAT THIS SHOWS AND DOES NOT SHOW: The title match is precise (COO, Wealth Management Americas). Harris's presence in Epstein KYC chains confirms operational involvement. However, we lack documents placing Harris specifically in the April 2013 onboarding memorandum receipt or the January 2015 ARRC escalation decision described in the consent order. The identification is based on title + proximity + KYC presence, not direct evidence of the specific consent order events.
