Financial Services

Overview

In this constantly-evolving regulatory environment, we offer our clients an insider’s view of Congressional and regulatory actions and help them determine how potential changes affect their business interests.  Our experienced financial services team is uniquely qualified to assist clients in reassessing and tailoring their business strategies and objectives. Our professionals work routinely with senior policymakers serving in the relevant Congressional committees, as well as within the U.S. Department of Treasury, Federal Reserve Board, Securities and Exchange Commission, Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, Commodities Futures Trading Corporation, and other government entities.

We help our clients advance their goals by working with the relevant committees, agencies, and individuals both on and off of Capitol Hill. On behalf of our clients, we draft and obtain sponsors for critical legislation; successfully amend legislation; draft testimony for legislative hearings; and work with regulators as rules are being promulgated.

We have served a wide range of financial institutions and their holding companies ranging in asset size from several million dollars to multi-billion dollar entities throughout the United States. Our financial institution clients have included thrifts, banks and their holding companies, finance companies, insurance companies, investment banks, hedge funds, private equity funds and private investors, mortgage banks, pension funds, publicly held and privately held financial institutions, regional and national lenders, as well as professional trade associations.
