I value your emails to keep me abreast of various significant events that are happening in the US and abroad. The summarization of these events are always fact based, unbiased politically, and straightforward.
Also, you always provide information that isn’t “front page” stories, but in themselves are more significant than what is provided via mainstream media.
We consult for Financial Services firms so I need to understand what keeps my clients awake at night. And we're a design company, so I’m always on the hunt for broken things that need fixing.I get both of those things from Risk Channel. Stories about regulation and compliance are most relevant but the wider themes help to paint a picture.
Risk Channel reliably gives me something new to think about and explore. It is relevant and digestible. That’s all it needs to do and it does it well.
I read Risk Channel on a daily basis. I like Risk Channel because it compiles all the major news stories and provides links to the primary sources in a concise format and convenient medium.
My time is limited and Risk Channel is super convenient because I can spend 5 minutes (or less if I’m just skimming) and read a single email to catch up on all the major articles of the day, and if I want, jump directly to a main article to get a more in-depth read.
I really like the daily Risk Channel as it gives me a glimpse on what is happening in the risk world, helps me stay informed and prompts me to think if the same type of risk can emerge in my company.
The content is easy to go through and to the point. It takes me less than a few minutes to review and if I need to look further in any one story the source is right there for me to go to the full details.

North America
Confidence among America's chief executives has fallen to its lowest levels since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Conference Board said Wednesday. Its latest CEO survey, conducted between April 25th and May 9th, took the mood of 133 leaders of mostly public companies; it found that 68% expect the Federal Reserve's interest rate increases to trigger a recession. Sixty-one percent reported that economic conditions have worsened over the past six months, compared with 35% who said that during the first quarter. Just 14% reported improving economic conditions. Sixty percent expect conditions to worsen, up from 23% in the first quarter. The Conference Board's report followed comments from Wells Fargo CEO Charlie Scharf on Tuesday, who said there is no doubt that a downturn is looming. "It’s going to be hard to avoid some kind of recession," he commented at the Wall Street Journal's Future of Everything Festival. Nevertheless, he added, consumers and businesses are still financially healthy by many measures. “The fact that everyone is so strong going into this should hopefully provide a cushion such that whatever recession there is, if there is one, is short and not all that deep."

UK/Europe
The European Central Bank (ECB) has told eight unnamed banks to shift staff out of London, saying it has identified 56 groups of traders who should be doing their jobs from within the EU following an investigation into whether the institutions are seeking to dodge post-Brexit rules. An ECB exercise known as “desk mapping” found that the banks, which all have headquarters outside the EU, haven’t boosted sufficient local capabilities to manage their business in the region, people familiar with the process said, adding that part of the reason for the staff shortfall is a reluctance among senior executives to move from London to cities including Dublin, Frankfurt and Paris. The ECB’s review included US lenders such as Bank of America, Citigroup, Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan and Morgan Stanley, and also Barclays, HSBC and UBS, the people said. It is noted that the number of professionals leaving the City post-Brexit has been much smaller than initially predicted. EY estimates that around 7,000 roles have moved since 2016, far fewer than the 200,000 job losses that were forecast before the Brexit vote.

New Broom at S.E.C
In the closing days of the 1960s, a boy walks quickly along the sidewalk as he follows his father striding purposefully in and out of the smoky roadside bars and diners of Baltimore. His father enters an establishment, a tired neon light flashing, and exchanges words with the bar-tender as the boy hops up onto a stool. It is a well-rehearsed routine....
