The Credit Suisse $2.6 billion settlement for wrongdoing with no individuals held responsible and the bank protected from action by other regulatory agencies
05/19/2014
This WSJ editorial says justice and accountability are not being well served in this case and that it is proper to hold individuals responsible. The SEC agrees not to bar Credit Suisse from acting as investment advisor and Credit Suisse is protected from action by other regulatory agencies. Brad Dugan continues to be described in the media as the "Teflon-CEO" who does not have to take personal responsibility for the Swiss bank's behaviour.

The Economist 04/21/17
We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
