Banking and Financial Regulation: Discussion with Mr. Jonathan Sugarman
10:00 am
Mr. Jonathan Sugarman:
Of course. My job as risk manager is to see everything, report everything and touch nothing, because if I intervene and I start trading, then there is nobody to control me. The only reason I am there is as the eyes of the law. I am there as the eyes of the regulation. I am there as the eyes of the mandate given to the trading room by the board of directors. I am there in several capacities, to make sure that whether we buy and sell gold or German government bonds, it is all within the limits.
