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.

Ishan Wahi, a former product manager at cryptocurrency exchange Coinbase, has pleaded guilty to two counts of conspiracy to commit wire fraud in connection with a scheme to commit insider trading in cryptocurrency assets by using confidential Coinbase information about which crypto assets were scheduled to be listed on the firm’s exchanges. U.S. Attorney Damian Williams said: “Ishan Wahi – a former Coinbase product manager – admitted in court today that he tipped others regarding Coinbase’s planned token listings so that they could trade in crypto assets for a profit. Wahi is the first insider to admit guilt in an insider trading case involving the cryptocurrency markets. Whether it occurs in the equity markets or the crypto markets, stealing confidential business information for your own personal profit or the profit of others is a serious federal crime. The Southern District of New York has decades of experience pursuing insider trading cases, and we will continue to use our expertise to prosecute this crime no matter what form it takes and where it occurs.” A Coinbase spokeswoman said the company “takes allegations of improper use of company information with the utmost seriousness.”

UK/Europe
Senior executives from Barclays, HSBC, Lloyds and NatWest defended their savings deals before MPs on Tuesday following charges that they were failing to pass on interest rate rises. Since December 2021, rates have risen from 0.1% to a 15-year high 4% now, but MPs said mortgage rates had risen more rapidly than the returns offered to savers when the base rate went up. Bank bosses were accused of prioritising profits but they disputed this, arguing that the debate had incorrectly centred on the interest rate offered on easy-access savings accounts, whereas regular saver deals offered market-leading rates of interest. The bankers were also pressed on the thousands of branch closures in recent years. They responded by telling the committee they were committed to keeping physical networks in the UK and gave examples of cash pods, bank hubs, mobile banking vans, and smart ATMs as alternatives.

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....
