Georgetown University’s McDonough School of Business announced on April 11 the launch of the Psaros Center for Financial Markets and Policy.
The center provides thought leadership that directly impacts global finance by advancing the dialogue around public and private markets, conducting unbiased research that impacts practice and policy, convening scholars, industry participants, and policymakers, and cultivating students to become the next generation of globally-minded, principled leaders.
More than a decade after providing seed capital to establish financial markets and policy center at Georgetown McDonough, Michael G. (B’89) and Robin Psaros (Parents ’21) are committing $11 million to endow the newly renamed Psaros Center for Financial Markets and Policy into the preeminent destination for unbiased expertise at the intersection of finance and policy. This gift builds upon years of collaboration between Michael Psaros and his mentor Reena Aggarwal, Robert E. McDonough Professor of Finance and director of the Psaros Center for Financial Markets and Policy.
“My family is humbled to invest in the center at Georgetown, particularly during this time of profound global change,” said Michael Psaros, co-founder and managing partner of KPS Capital Partners, LP, a leading global private equity firm. “In doing so, we are privileged to give back to a country that has provided us with so many opportunities.”
As the financial services sector adapts to changes in financial markets, disruptive technology, and environmental and social concerns, the Psaros Center will provide objective, research-driven guidance at the intersection of finance and policy.
“The Psaros Center will convene leaders across the private and public sectors and act as an intellectual honest broker, a facilitator, and an educator, and will become the primary destination for both practitioners, policymakers, and journalists seeking unbiased expertise,” continued Psaros, who is a member of the Georgetown University Board of Directors and serves as co-vice chair of the Board of Advisors of the McDonough School of Business.
