Meredith Whitney Biography

Hailed “The Oracle of Wall Street” by Bloomberg, Meredith Whitney was ahead of the curve during America’s largest credit crisis since the Great Depression. Whitney’s rise to international prominence was triggered in October 2007 when she made one of the most controversial and highly publicized calls in Wall Street history. With over 25 years of leadership experience within the financial services industry, Whitney has defined her career with bold predictions, garnering global attention.

Whitney has been one of the most visible female analysts on Wall Street, earning recognition from, among others, Fortune as one of the "50 Most Powerful Women" (2008 - 2013) and one of their "40 Under 40" (2009); from Forbes, on their "50 Over 50" list (2023); from Time magazine as one of the "100 Most Influential People in the World" (2009); and from Crain’s, on their "40 Under 40" list. She is revered for predicting Citibank's need to raise capital in October 2007, a forecast which ultimately proved to be correct and was widely recognized as an opening event for the global financial crisis.

At the podium, Whitney lives up to her reputation as Wall Street’s star analyst, offering audiences a profound and comprehensive insight into our economic situation. As the leading authority on America’s credit crisis, Whitney demystifies our financial system for novices and industry experts alike. She explains how we can recover from the economic issues that even Wall Street struggles to understand. “Life is all about how much you prepare, and if you over prepare, you will always succeed,” she says.

Whitney is the founder of Meredith Whitney Advisory Group, LLC. Formerly the Managing Director and Senior Financial Institutions Analyst for Oppenheimer & Co. Inc, Whitney was also an analyst for CIBC World Markets and conducted Financial Institutions research at Wachovia Securities. She is the former CFO of Kindbody, a women-led fertility and family-building provider and benefit solution.
