About Better Markets

Better Markets is a non-profit, non-partisan, and independent organization working to build a more secure financial system for all Americans. Better Markets works to rebuild those protections by restoring laws, rules and regulations that shield families on Main Street from the high-risk, dangerous activities on Wall Street. Our team of professionals - including President and Chief Executive Officer Dennis Kelleher and markets, regulatory and legislative specialists, along with lawyers and communicators – is the counterweight to Wall Street’s special interests in Washington DC. When Wall Street is pushing those special interests, they run right into Better Markets, which is right there pushing back with the public interest. We’re the American people’s voice in the courts, the Congress and the regulatory agencies, fighting against Wall Street recklessness while fighting for reform. Our agenda-setting analysis provides a critical balance in the rulemaking and policymaking debates, and our expert research has made Better Markets the go-to source for trusted and substantive information about our financial markets, economic policy and key policy proposals. Over the last five years, Better Markets has had a significant impact on financial reform – from re-shaping the political discourse to strengthening many parts of the Dodd-Frank rule making process. We’ve become a potent counterweight to the industry as the rules of financial reform are being drafted and challenged, filing nearly 200 comment letters so that agencies finalize the strongest possible safeguards to protect the American people from another financial crash.
