Releasing Our First Candidate Research Report for Regulatory Risk

Our team of analysts recently compiled various research memos that provide background on the state and locally elected officials running for Federal office in 2020. Today, we’re excited to release the 2020 Candidate Research Report on Senate Candidates. The report lists the current elected offices all candidates hold (or their profession), and also notes some potentially relevant pension funds. We’ll be following up with a report on House candidates soon.

Here is a link to download our 2020 Candidate Research Report on Senate Candidates: https://insights.illumis.com/en-us/senate-regulatory-report.

While talking to compliance teams, we’ve heard that the broad range of elections often means countless hours of additional research and analysis. With this report, we hope to provide additional insight into current candidates to help simplify your research processes.

If you have any questions or want to schedule a demo with our team, feel free to reach out to [email protected]!
