Benjamin Lawsky, Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s handpicked banking cop in New York, has emerged as the new “it” regulator among the Wall Street reform crowd.

In recent months, his New York Financial Services Department has scored headline-making settlements with foreign banks over money laundering, warned the insurance industry over shadowy accounting practices and cracked down on the financial consulting business.

This track record has won him “attaboys” from Wall Street critics who say federal regulators have been too timid while bruising feelings in Washington and causing bankers to grumble that he’s helping score headlines for Cuomo, his political patron and a possible 2016 presidential aspirant.
