Dennis Kelleher

Dennis Kelleher is the CEO of Better Markets, a nonprofit organization that advocates for stricter regulations in the financial sector. He is a prominent voice in the conversation about consumer protection and financial oversight, often emphasizing the need for strong government regulation to prevent predatory practices in the financial industry. Kelleher has been vocal in his criticism of efforts to weaken the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB), arguing that such moves endanger the financial well-being of American consumers, particularly those from working-class backgrounds. Recently, he condemned actions taken by the Trump administration to halt CFPB supervision as detrimental to the very voters who supported Trump.
