Henrietta has been providing investors with economic policy analysis for over 15 years, leading the Veda policy team through trade wars, global pandemic, recession, financial services reform, healthcare reform, and various trade policies of multiple administrations impacting the global marketplace and investment community.

Henrietta’s analysis is derived from legislative, regulatory, and political events nationally and at the state level on issues as diverse as tariffs, fiscal stimulus, tax legislation (corporate and individual), the debt ceiling, and other economic and fiscal priorities of Washington, D.C. Henrietta’s longstanding relationships with Administration, Agency, Senate and House members and staff run the ideological gamut and her approach to making directional calls for investors hinges on understanding the motives and voting tendencies of all manner of public officials. Veda is pleased to provide regular calls and meetings with federal officials, staff and more throughout the year which offers a mutually beneficial exchange of ideas and views for all involved.

Henrietta led the macroeconomic policy team at a DC-based broker-dealer for eight years after serving in the U.S. Senate covering the Senate Finance, Banking, and Budget Committees most critically during the Great Recession. Her time in the Senate revolved around the creation and passage of the Troubled Asset Relief Program, the American Reinvestment and Recovery Act, and the automotive industry crisis of 2008-10. Prior to serving in the U.S. Senate, Henrietta covered tax, financial services, and deficit issues for the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and served as a research fellow to Congressman Joe Crowley (D-NY). Before moving to Washington, Henrietta spent several years as a Research Associate at Zweig-DiMenna, LLC a long-standing hedge fund in New York.

Henrietta has covered mid-term and general elections for investors in each general and midterm election since 2010.
