Where Bank Regulators Go to Get Rich

“Mary Schapiro, the former chairman of the Securities and Exchange Commission, must take us for fools.  Four months after leaving the SEC, Schapiro is joining a firm stuffed to the gills with former government financial-services regulators peddling their knowledge of Washington’s regulatory thicket to the banks and financial-services companies they once oversaw.  Promontory, founded in 2001 by Eugene Ludwig, a former comptroller of the currency, has become a sort of mini-version of Fannie Mae in its heyday.   About 100 of the 400 Promontory employees are former Washington regulators.”
