Five Years On, Confidence Still Lacking in Conflicted Ratings System
Keywords:
Failure to implement the Dodd-Frank provision that removes a government requirement of credit ratings on securities
01/02/2009
The foot dragging that has held up this change comes from the Treasury's Office of the Comptroller of the Currency. Treasury Secretary Geithner said in a recent op-ed piece in the Wall Street Journal that he would ask the President to veto any changes to the Dood-Frank legislation. The S.E.C. and other regulators have not made the changes as required by the reform law. A Wall Street Journal editorial on July 23, 2011, points to the failure to make this change by regulatory agencies.

A Crisis Is a Terrible Thing to Waste
BusinessWeek 12/17/2009
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.
