Banking into Government Roles?

Hi Monkeys,

I'm an analyst right now & definitely want to exit IB after my two year stint. I've never been interested in PE/buyside, and I have been thinking I would like to exit to some sort of government role. Are there any specific roles/agencies I should take a look at, where my skills would be valuable? I've been looking at something like the SEC, FBI, CIA, & Senate/House Committees on finance-related stuff, but any insight would be appreciated
