Kevin Cirilli was a visiting media fellow in the Atlantic Council’s Global China Hub. A communications specialist, Cirilli also serves as a broadcast contributor for Yahoo Finance. He was recently chief Washington correspondent for Bloomberg Television and Bloomberg Radio, where he worked for nearly six years and was one of the youngest chief Washington correspondents in broadcast journalism history. His work has recently been featured on Scripps News.

Cirilli brings his unique background in geopolitics, global business, print and broadcast media, political communications, and regulatory affairs as a nonpartisan, policy-based reporter. His daily reports and analysis communicated with a niche audience of global investors, financial services stakeholders, and policymakers. Cirilli helped launch and anchor a global daily radio show and interviewed prominent global leaders while covering breaking business news from the White House and the US Capitol.

Cirilli’s expertise is rooted in building trust in technology infrastructure networks among like-minded stakeholders who believe in democratic principles. He has covered how democracies work through public-private partnerships, investment, and financing to counter authoritarianism. He has extensively covered topics including export finance controls, US-China relations, tech diplomacy, financial services, regulatory affairs, domestic politics, Silicon Valley regulations. His reporting took him all over the world, including Saudi Arabia, Vietnam, Colombia, Israel, South Africa, and Germany. Prior to Bloomberg, he worked for POLITICO Pro Financial Services and the Hill, where he helped launch the daily Overnight Finance tip sheet (where he frequently covered the Export-Import Bank).

Kevin grew up in suburban Philadelphia’s Delaware County. In his free time, he enjoys Philadelphia’s food scene and running.
