CEO and Co-founder
In support of this dual objective, we’ve worked hard to create a culture that rewards curiosity, initiative, persistence, and performance. As our industry evolves, these qualities allow us to adapt and evolve with it. The technologies and methods we use might change, but by staying relentlessly focused on our mission and values, we’re able to exemplify consistent excellence.
How We Got Here
Roman Iwachiw and Tom Follain founded FI Consulting in 2002, aiming to help financial institutions solve challenging analytical problems while providing a truly outstanding client service experience. Today, our company comprises more than 80 professionals and a client base that includes leading commercial financial institutions, government agencies, and financial industry regulators.
Our clients choose us to handle some of their most demanding and visible mandates. We regularly develop mission-critical solutions in time-sensitive and highly scrutinized environments that often include stringent financial statements and internal controls audits. Over the years, we’ve developed institutional knowledge that few other firms possess.
FI consultants worked with government and commercial financial institutions as trusted advisors during the Great Recession, shedding light on data that led to subsequent monetary and fiscal policy decisions. In 2017, they answered the call from the White House to analyze a trillion-dollar portfolio. During the COVID-19 pandemic, we deployed multiple teams to support the U.S. Small Business Administration’s effort to approve more than 3.6 million loans that helped small businesses survive one of the largest economic downturns in our nation’s history.
Our capabilities are continually evolving to meet the needs of the businesses and government agencies who depend on us. Year after year, these organizations continue to rehire us to support their most critical initiatives, reinforcing our commitment to our values and mission.
