WASHINGTON — Kenneth D. Brody, the one-time Wall Street financial wizard who helped spearhead the Clinton Administration's campaign to boost U.S. business abroad, is resigning as head of the government's export financing agency.
As chairman and chief executive of the Export-Import Bank of the United States, Brody, 52, undertook a top-to-bottom restructuring of the bank's operations during the past three years, reducing the time and cost needed to evaluate loan applications, reaching out to small business exporters and redirecting its lending activities to developing markets in Asia, Latin America and Eastern Europe.
