Ex-DFS Chief Vullo Named ‘Regulator-in-Residence’

Plenty of companies have an attorney or publicist on retainer. A few have an in-house doctor or therapist. And now FinTech Innovation Lab New York has a regulator-in-residence.

The lab, founded by consulting giant Accenture and the Partnership Fund for New York City, said Maria Vullo, former superintendent for the state Department of Financial Services, will advise startups on how to deal with regulators as they mature and start interacting with banks and insurers.
