Dubbed by the American Banker “the sharpest mind analyzing banking policy today — maybe ever,” Karen Petrou is one of the most sought-after financial consultants in Washington and one of the most influential experts on financial policy and regulation in the world. She is Managing Partner of Federal Financial Analytics, the Washington, DC, financial services consulting firm she co-founded in 1985. It does not lobby for anyone, providing strategic and policy analysis and advisory services to major financial institutions and global central banks. Her views can be found almost every day in the Financial Times, American Banker, Wall Street Journal, NPR, CNBC, and many other media. In addition to testifying before the US Congress, she has spoken before the Federal Reserve Banks of New York, St. Louis, San Francisco, and Chicago; the European Central Bank; the International Monetary Fund; and many other governmental, industry, and academic groups. She also provides strategic guidance to foundations on a pro bono basis in connection with work by her and her husband, Basil, to create new funding instruments to speed biomedical research. Winners of the Visionary Award in 2019 from the Foundation Fighting Blindness for this work, the Petrous live in Washington, DC, with Zuni, a German Shepherd guide dog.
