The U.S. Federal Reserve's Large Institution Supervision Coordination Committee
10/21/2009
Fed chairman Bernanke and Governor Tarullo set up the LISCC in 2010 to provide expert supervision at Fed headquarters that reports to them. Before this supervision was left to the 12 Federal Reserve Banks. Now the Fed can draw on the 42 PhD's and other experts in its ranks to review individual bank's financial position for systemic risk in adverse scenarios and flag these risks. This is critical to effective supervision of large banks.

Danel Tarullo's lone effort at the Federal Reserve- 2009-2010
10/01/2009
Daniel Tarullo steps in around September 2009, when Congress and the administration have already buckled under pressure from the lobbying by the banking industry to weaken essential regulatory reform in derivatives trading, and in other reforms. Volcker is 82, and rarely uses his Washington office (ignored?), Tarullo is looked at by staff at the Fed from the previous lax regime of regulation with skepticism. Mervyn King at the Bank of England is alone in calling for the breakup of big banks into smaller banks, and separating utility and investment banking, which Volcker supports. As it stands now bank regulation falls under the FSA in England, with the Conservatives under Osborne looking to give the Bank of England this authority. And all the time banking behaviours at investment banks and trading desks continue in a business as usual manner.

U.K. Banks Face Political Upheaval
Wall Street Journal 10/27/2009
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.
