Rahm Emanuel Heads to Wall Street

“Rahm Emanuel, a veteran Democratic leader and political brawler widely seen as a 2028 presidential contender, is coming to Wall Street. Emanuel, who served most recently as Joe Biden’s ambassador to Japan, is rejoining investment bank Centerview Partners, where he worked from 2019 to 2021 counseling CEOs on mergers, regulation, and political matters,” Semafor reports.

“Centerview is a logical place for Emanuel to hang his hat as he weighs a White House campaign. It’s home to heavyweight Democratic fundraisers, including co-founder Blair Effron, and has a client list whose CEOs would be valuable allies in a centrist run.”
