01/28/2009
Orszag, budget director in the Obama administration, joins Citigroup. A senior official at the New York Fed's regulatory department joins Goldman Sachs. Another Fed official joins Morgan Stanley as chief economist. S.E.C. enforcement chief leaves Deutsche Bank for the S.E.C. and leaves the S.E.C. for a position in the financial industry. The nominee for S.E.C. chief in 2013, Jo White, represented JP Morgan Chase in her work at a law firm. The nominee for Treasury Secretary Jacob Lew, worked at Citigroup for a short period. A similiar situation exists in the UK and in other EU countries.

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.
