It seems incredulous to me to suppose that lobbyists would reject it on that basis. US banking is a powerful force in the world of international banking, it seems naturally prudent to retain lobbyists to make sure you aren't shut out of the world economy. I'm sure there are some very large banks in the US that have lobbyist equivalents in other countries that would look at our banks the same way. I'm sure major US banking institutions provide cover for US officers abroad as well.
