| Info | Regan was New York State comptroller from 1979 to 1993. The comptroller's office is responsible for accounting, auditing, and financial oversight functions for New York State and local governments, with a special emphasis on New York City during the fiscal crisis. The comptroller also is sole trustee for the state pension fund, now valued at $130 billion.
As Erie County executive from 1972 to 1978, Regan ran the fourth largest government unit in New York State, with 9,000 employees providing health, library, community higher education, and other services to residents of metropolitan Buffalo.
Regan is a graduate of Hobart College, and he earned a J.D. cum laude from the State University of New York School of Law. He has been president and a distinguished fellow at the Jerome Levy Economics Institute at Bard College and has taught at Stern, Canisius College, and the State University College at Buffalo. He has served as a trustee at Marymount College, NYU Stern School of Business, and New York Law School.
In scholarship, Regan has written articles on public infrastructure financing and a book on corporate governance, which he lectures on at Baruch. His most recent publication is a December 2003 Wall Street Journal op-ed article, written with Professor Burt Rothberg, on the changing policies on proxy voting of mutual funds.
Regan is a trustee of the Financial Accounting Foundation, which oversees accounting and financial reporting standards for the United States, and is chairman of the Advisory Council of the Enhanced Business Reporting Project, a national effort to encourage corporations to disclose key non-financial measures of performance. He is a trustee of Oppenheimer mutual funds and chairman of its audit and proxy voting committees.
In addition, Regan serves as a director of the Committee for Economic Development and a member of the steering committees of NYC Olympics 2012 and the Association for a Better New York (ABNY). He is also a member of the Council on Foreign Relations.
