Why It Matters

IRACE Digital Bank NA, the rebranded successor to FundBank, registered with Greenberg Traurig LLP Aug. 3 to lobby on financial institutions, investments, and securities.

Two lobbyists are assigned to the account: Demetrius McDaniel as Senior Vice President and Mike Rogers as an Associate. Rogers previously worked as a Legislative Correspondent for Sen. Jack Reed (D-RI) and as a Legislative Assistant for Rep. Frank Pallone, Jr. (D-NJ-6).
