Michael Pedroni, founder and CEO of Highland Global Advisors, a consulting firm for financial services and technology firms navigating U.S. and European regulations, told Pensions & Investments that the order is “exactly what we think needs to be done in order to get the ball rolling on this.”
“The executive branch has more capacity to get this done quickly in the short term,” added Pedroni, who was formerly a senior staffer at the Treasury Department and previously worked at the Investment Company Institute and Managed Funds Association.
