Washington, D.C. — Today, the Bank Policy Institute is pleased to announce Anthony Bush has been hired as Assistant Vice President of Government Affairs. Bush’s portfolio will focus on consumer and small business issues and economic inclusion.

I look forward to using my previous experience to help advance the mission and goals of BPI from day one,” said Bush. “Over the last year BPI has consistently championed a plethora of meaningful banking issues and I am thrilled to help take the team to the next level.”
