Federal Financial Analytics dates back to 1985, when Karen Shaw Petrou founded the Institute for Strategy Development. Beginning with an information service, the firm steadily increased the consulting component based on client demand.

Federal Financial Analytics works to protect clients from the range of risks that result from poor anticipation and analysis of U.S. policy. Financial services firms are particularly vulnerable to risk from new laws and changed regulations. We ensure that strategic planning and risk management take full account of current and emerging risks.
