Cicero Consulting is a London-based financial services lobbying consultancy.

Profile

Cicero Consulting London offices, 1-2 Lower James Street, London, W1F 9EG (just off Golden Square)

Cicero has offices in London and Brussels, providing strategic public affairs, policy and communications advice to a wide range of asset managers, mortgage lenders, life offices, insurers, banks, hedge funds, intermediaries, financial trade bodies and private clients.

It describes a typical public affairs campaign as follows: "A typical programme may include representations to UK or EU government, officials or regulators, contributing to the policy debate through green papers, think tanks or the media, training for UK or EU committee interviews, support drafting UK Private Members Bills or EU own initiative reports, preparing political intelligence reports or acting as an early warning monitor. Cicero undertakes these and many other activities on behalf of our clients."[1]

People

Directors

  • Jeremy Swan, managing director. Swan is a former vice president of both JP Morgan and Citigroup and has served as Conservative Councillor for the (London) Putney ward of Parkside until 2002. He then switched to the Liberal Democrats.[2]
  • Iain Anderson, Director, Chief Corporate Counsel. Anderson leads the agency’s corporate communications practice. Over an 18 year career, he has advised financial institutions, trade and regulatory bodies, NGOs and political parties in the UK and US. He previously worked at Ludgate Commu­nica­tions, alongside among others Soph­ia Harrison, European head of corporate comms at private equity firm Black­stone.[3]
  • Mark Twigg, director. Twigg worked for the Labour Party in the run up to the 1997 general election before becoming a ministerial aide to Nick Brown - one of Gordon Brown's closest allies - at the Ministry of Agriculture.

During that time he has worked across a wide range of sectors with a focus on financial services, regulation and EU policy issues.[4]
