Andrew Palmer is a Principal at Rich Feuer Anderson (RFA). He joined the firm in 2017 and provides clients with counsel on how to navigate complex issues in front of Congress and the federal financial regulators. His guidance helps financial services companies including banks, asset managers, innovative fintech and digital asset companies, private equity firms, and insurance companies accomplish their goals in Washington.
Andrew has especially deep relationships with Republican Members and senior staff on the House Financial Services and Senate Banking Committees. He understands how each member views complex policy and political issues and uses that knowledge to help clients shape their advocacy efforts. He is particularly adept at assisting clients with issues at the cross-section of financial and national security policy, including sanctions, foreign investment, and anti-money laundering issues.
Andrew joined RFA from Capitol Hill, where he worked in legislative roles for Rep. Stephen Fincher (R-TN), a senior member of the House Financial Services Committee, and Rep. Chuck Fleischmann (R-TN), a senior member of the House Appropriations Committee. While advising Rep. Fincher Andrew played a vital role in the 2015 re-authorization and reform of the Export-Import Bank of the United States, a process which required a discharge petition to become law and was only the fourth successful use of the parliamentary procedure since 1985. For Rep. Fleishmann, Andrew advised on appropriations issues and developed a deep understanding of the crafting and consideration of the annual appropriations bills.
Andrew began his career in the office of former Rep. Steve Stivers (R-OH) and is politically active in support of Republican congressional candidates.
