Reuters hires Schroeder to cover bank regulation

Pete Schroeder

Linda Stern, financial regulation editor at Reuters, sent out the following announcement:

Pete Schroeder is joining the financial regulation team in the Washington bureau, effective Monday, February 27

At Reuters, Pete will be focusing on bank regulation and legislation.  He’ll be covering efforts in Congress to rewrite Dodd Frank and in the Trump-era Treasury Department and at banking agencies to turn back the clock on post-crisis regulations.

Before joining Reuters, Pete spent six years covering a range of economic and financial issues for The Hill, so he knows a few things and a few folk. He focused on Dodd-Frank, the Federal Reserve, and the federal debt limit, though he also enjoyed covering politics: He worked on stories about the post-John Boehner GOP leadership shakeup and three political conventions spanning the 2012 and 2016 campaigns.  He’s broken news out of the SEC and the Senate.

He previously covered taxes for The Bond Buyer and started out as an intern with The Wall Street Journal.

Pete joins a robust financial regulation team that includes Sarah Lynch covering the SEC, Lisa Lambert covering CFPB,  Patrick Rucker on housing finance and banks, and Amanda Becker on Labor Department and general assignment, with Linda Stern as editor in charge.
