About PAG

Some decisions cannot wait for certainty. They have to be made while the policy environment is still shifting, the regulatory picture is still forming, and the political landscape is still moving. Those are the decisions PAG was built for.

Jason and Yleem Poblete founded the Poblete Analysis Group to provide political risk analysis and U.S. market and policy intelligence to clients whose interests depend on understanding how American law, policy, and politics actually work—not just how they are supposed to.

Jason brings 30 years of experience at the intersection of national security, U.S. foreign policy, and international law, with a deep focus on the Western Hemisphere, the Middle East, and the sanctions regimes affecting both. He has secured the release of Americans wrongfully imprisoned abroad, testified before the United Nations and the U.S. Congress, and was honored by the James W. Foley Foundation with the 2020 Hostage Freedom Award. He currently serves as a Commissioner on the CSIS Commission on Hostage Taking and Wrongful Detention.

Yleem brings senior government experience at the highest levels of U.S. national security and foreign policy. As the Senate-confirmed Assistant Secretary of State for Verification and Compliance, she was the lead U.S. Presidential appointee on arms control, nonproliferation, and disarmament treaties and executive agreements. She previously served as Chief of Staff of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, on the National Security Council transition team, and in the Senior Executive Service at the State Department. Her expertise spans arms control, weapons of mass destruction, strategic deterrence, Western Hemisphere affairs, and Middle East policy.

Together, they offer the combination of legal analytical depth and senior policy experience that allows clients to see not just what is happening, but what it means and what comes next. Leveraging their networks and knowledge, PAG helps clients navigate the intersection of U.S. policy, geopolitical risk, and market conditions.

We produce executive briefings, political risk assessments, and strategic counsel on sanctions developments, U.S.–Latin America and U.S.–Middle East policy, regulatory and political risk in complex jurisdictions, and the legislative and executive branch dynamics that shape the environment in which our clients operate.

We do not provide legal representation. We provide the analysis and strategic intelligence that informs the decisions that precede and surround it.

If that describes what you need, we should talk.
