He is widely quoted in the financial press and is a regular guest on Bloomberg, CNBC, and other broadcast programs.
Adams was promoted to vice president in February 2015, and in April 2018 was elected a member of the PNC Institutional Asset Management Investment Policy Committee.

Adams joined PNC in 2011 after serving as resident economist for The Conference Board China Center from 2009 to 2011. In that position he served as spokesman on the Chinese business cycle and was a designer of The Conference Board Leading Economic Index for China®, a widely-followed, market-moving economic indicator.
