Playing a constructive role in public policy

Through our Office of Government, Regulatory Affairs & Public Policy (GRA&PP), we seek to play a constructive role in public policy development.

GRA&PP is responsible for developing and implementing strategies in close coordination with firm leadership to engage policymakers and proactively shape public policy that impacts the firm. The team works extensively with policymakers across government and other thought leaders to deepen their understanding about the value the firm and the profession provide to the capital markets, investors, and our clients, as well as the varied means by which our services are delivered. The approach requires continual outreach and relationship development with key decision makers at all levels of government, including Congress, the Executive Branch, and regulatory bodies such as the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB), and state and local authorities, among others.
