The Investment Adviser Association named Allison Dembeck as head of federal legislative affairs, PLANADVISER reported Nov. 13.
Dembeck spent 12 years at the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, where she rose to vice president of government relationships and covered retirement security, employee benefits and tax.
She was most recently head of government relations at Save the Children U.S.; PLANADVISER puts her broader legislative-advocacy career at more than 20 years.
Dembeck will lead the IAA's day-to-day congressional advocacy for fiduciary investment advisers and their clients and oversee its political action committee.
For advisory firms, Dembeck will be the single Washington contact for both lobbying and campaign spending.
