Isabel Patelunas sworn in as head of TFI’s intelligence office and Andrea Gacki named OFAC Director

Washington – The U.S. Department of the Treasury today announced two additions to the senior leadership team in its Office of Terrorism and Financial Intelligence (TFI).
Isabel “Izzy” Patelunas was sworn in this morning as Assistant Secretary for TFI’s Office of Intelligence and Analysis (OIA). Andrea Gacki was named permanent Director of the Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC), after serving as Acting Director since May of this year.
“Treasury plays an integral role in combating terrorism and other global illicit financial threats, and the addition of Izzy Patelunas and promotion of Andrea Gacki will further enhance TFI’s efforts to carry out its important national security and foreign policy mission.
As TFI plays an ever increasing role in our country’s national security and foreign policy, Andrea and Izzy will bring tremendous experience to TFI’s leadership team,” said Treasury Secretary Steven T. Mnuchin.
“I look forward to working with them to address the complex challenges ahead in the years to come.”
“Izzy Patelunas’ accomplished tenure in the Intelligence Community and extensive background on a wide range of national security matters makes her particularly well-suited to lead Treasury’s intelligence agency.
Izzy will be a terrific addition to our leadership team,” said Sigal P. Mandelker, Under Secretary for TFI. “Andrea Gacki’s insight and significant experience both at OFAC and the Department of Justice have proven invaluable to TFI for more than a decade.
I look forward to continuing to work closely with Andrea and to welcoming Izzy. As we continue to deploy innovative tools and new strategies to execute our mission, I am confident that they will both play integral roles in advancing TFI’s objectives.”
