Federal regulators say the financial sector — particularly big banks — failed to act on obvious red flags in the case of Jeffrey Epstein's financial network, and now they're pointing fingers at each other. Agencies like the U.S. Treasury Department and the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency assert that banks should have detected and reported Epstein's suspicious transactions years ago and triggered law-enforcement action. Meanwhile, some banks claim they did file reports or raise internal alarms but regulators ignored or delayed follow-up investigations, essentially accusing federal agencies of failing to enforce or respond to the alerts.On the flip side, financial institutions argue they were operating under murky guidance and rely on regulators to interpret complex anti-money-laundering laws — now they say the feds didn't act promptly or clearly once files were submitted. This blame-game has escalated as lawsuits proliferate: banks claim regulators pushed responsibility back onto them, while regulators argue that banks willfully overlooked their compliance duties and expect bail-outs or leniency rather than accountability. The result is a stalemate where neither side wants to claim full fault, and victims of Epstein's crimes are still waiting for clarity and justice.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:JPMorgan Flagged Epstein Suspicions in 2002, Years Earlier Than KnownBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

In Washington, U.S. Senator Elizabeth Warren has officially urged the nation's top banking regulators — the Federal Reserve Board, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) — to launch public and private investigations into Staley's conduct while he was at J.P. Morgan Chase & Co. and later Barclays PLC. Warren's letter alleges that Staley helped shield Epstein's access to the banking system by intervening when internal red flags about Epstein's transactions were raised and that despite the banks settling for large sums in sister cases, Staley has so far avoided U.S. accountabilityAt the same time, U.S. lawsuits are advancing against Barclays and Staley over alleged investor mis-representation. A judge in Los Angeles denied Staley's request to dismiss a class-action claim that the bank and Staley misled investors about the true nature of his ties to Epstein after his arrest in 2019. The U.K.'s Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) earlier found that Staley misled regulators by approving a letter stating his relationship with Epstein was not “close,” whereas email evidence showed they were in contact well beyond what the letter claimed.to contact  me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

Raj Goyle is running for Comptroller of New York state, and he wants your support. He's got mine because I think Raj is what America is all about. A first-generation Indian-American, Duke undergrad and Harvard Law grad, Raj was the co-founder of Bodhala, a legal spend analytics and management platform which he and team sold to Onit. As the leader of Phone Free New York, Raj led a bi-partisan effort to get phones out of the classroom across New York state. And now he wants to take his immense talent and experience to Albany for the most important position (Comptroller!) you've never thought about. As you'll hear, there's plenty that Raj and I disagree about. But he's the kind of person we need more of in government: a smart, driven leader who wants to make government work for citizens. Among lots of other things, Raj and I discuss: -Zohran Mamdani, the NYC mayoral candidate whom Raj supports and I DO NOT -What a comptroller does -Money, happiness, and public service -What it was like for his parents–both doctors–to emigrate to the U.S. -How Jimmy Carter helped shaped his belief in ethical capitalism and an accountable government AI's impact on the economy and what we can do about it ✍️Please rate my podcast (https://ratethispodcast.com/paulopod) ✍️

Today's podcast features the first part of a recent webinar produced on September 3, 2025, which examined the key provisions of the GENIUS Act (“The Guiding and Establishing National Innovation for U.S. Stablecoins Act”) and its regulatory impact on banks, fintechs and the future of stablecoins. The discussion covers critical definitions, licensing, oversight and enforcement requirements, the relationship to state stablecoin laws. Panelists offer insights into the role of federal banking regulators such as the Comptroller of the Currency, the Federal Reserve, and the Financial Stability Oversight Council (“FSOC”), highlighting the Act's efforts to establish a uniform regulatory framework and how financial institutions are responding to the new rules. The webinar features three expert speakers: Art Wilmarth, Professor Emeritus at George Washington University Law School, Richard Rosenthal, Principal in Deloitte's Risk and Financial Advisory practice and Peter Jaslow, Practice Co-Leader of Ballard Spahr's Blockchain Technology and Cryptocurrency group Listeners will gain an understanding of how the GENIUS Act may reshape business stablecoin models.  The episode touches on compliance timelines, emphasizing the rapid pace of regulation, and previews issues of consumer protection and its ban on making interest payments. This dialogue sets the foundation for deeper analysis of legal risks and constitutional challenges, which will be explored in the upcoming second part of the series. Consumer Finance Monitor is hosted by Alan Kaplinsky, Senior Counsel at Ballard Spahr, and the founder and former chair of the firm's Consumer Financial Services Group. We encourage listeners to subscribe to the podcast on their preferred platform for weekly insights into developments in the consumer finance industry.

In this episode of The Consumer Finance Podcast, Chris Willis is joined by Lori Sommerfield and James Stevens to delve into the implications of President Trump's Executive Order 14331, "Guaranteeing Fair Banking for All Americans." This order aims to eliminate politicized or unlawful de-banking practices by prohibiting financial institutions from denying access to banking services based on political, religious, or ideological beliefs. The trio discusses the historical context of de-banking, tracing its roots back to the Obama-era Operation Choke Point, and explores the current regulatory landscape shaped by the executive order. They analyze the directives issued to federal agencies, including the Small Business Administration and the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, and the potential risks and challenges facing financial institutions. Tune in to understand how this regulatory push will likely impact the banking industry and what steps institutions can take now to mitigate risks. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Episode Notes My guests include County Commissioner Erika Sugarmon. First, they vote to change the election cycle of the school board only to have the Mayor veto it. Will there be an override? Also, the state Comptroller has not approved the Shelby County budget so what could that mean? I ask and she responds. Natalie McKinney was elected to the school board in 2024 to a four year term. That was recently changed by the Shelby County Commission to a reelection in 2026 only to be vetoed by Mayor Harris. She was also recently elected by her peers to be the next board chair. She tells me what the priorities will be moving forward. State Representative Torrey Harris drops in to share his thoughts on the Federal incursion into our city, if it was necessary and what he has heard about the reaction from residents. That and more both on air and online Monday, 6 pm on 91.7 FM WYXR. Also, the WYXR app, Tunein, Facebook Live, YouTube and wherever you get your podcasts. It's time to talk!

Energia, meanwhile has become the latest company to announce price hikes of between 10% and 12%. Clare Aontú Rep June Dillon believes the fund needs to be used now.

In Episode 438 of Hidden Forces, Demetri Kofinas speaks with Charles Calomiris, former Chief Economist at the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, about his forthcoming paper “How Stablecoins Will Transform Banking,” which is based on a presentation he delivered at the Hoover Institution's annual monetary policy conference this past May. Demetri and Charles spend the first hour of their conversation laying out what stablecoins are and why Calomiris believes they are poised to transform our standard units of account through a revolution in real-time payments and a wholesale reinvention of the banking system, monetary policy, and the role of the dollar internationally. They discuss the significance of the recently signed “Genius Act,” explore the importance of bank charter modernization, and consider the broad public benefits of separating loans from deposits—ranging from faster, programmable settlement and greater competition in financial services to a reduction of systemic risk in areas where bank lending has become increasingly overconcentrated. The second hour is devoted to exploring some of the most important short- and long-term implications of stablecoin adoption, including: (1) Antitrust concerns over natural monopolies and network effects in stablecoin payment rails. (2) Near-term boost to demand for U.S. government debt, including the potential issuance of tokenized bills for gross real-time settlement. (3) Longer-term prospect of moving away from the dollar as the primary unit of account toward consumer bundles tied to assets, goods, and services that better reflect people's spending patterns—along with the implications for monetary policy, seigniorage, capital flows, and the preservation of purchasing power in these new currencies.

Under the theme of Block the Bombs, Break the Bonds, Palestinian Rights groups on Friday September 5, attended the Columbia County Democratic Party picnic to confront Cong. Josh Riley and Comptroller Tom DiNapoli over their support for the genocide in Gaza. They interrupted Riley when he was speaking, prompting DiNapoli to decide not to speak after spending several hours waiting. The protestors then slow walked DiNapoli out of the site, both as he walked surrounded by security to his car and then as he was slowly driven away. Riley recently went to Israel on an AIPAC junket while DiNapoli has continued to invest more than $350 million of the state pension funds in Israeli bonds. Before the many speeches started, we talked with Susan Davies and Jim McCabe of Columbia County for Palestine; and Eyad Alkarubi from the Palestinian Rights Committee. After the Palestinian protests, we talked with Karen Frishkoff of Citizens Climate Lobby. Our coverage concludes with a short interview with Jackie Salvatore, who is seeking to become the first African American woman county sheriff in the state.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. New York reporter Luke Tress joins host Jessica Steinberg for today's episode. Tress discusses several universities dealing with issues of antisemitism and anti-Zionism, including Tuesday's hearing in Congress as Republican officials questioned the CUNY chancellor and presidents of Berkeley and Georgetown about foreign funding, support for terrorism on campus and harassment of Jewish students on campus, keeping up the Trump administration pressure. He also discusses a report on Israel studies programs in universities, as a Jerusalem think tank looked at the climate on campuses, including anti-Zionism activism on campus alongside rich discussion and a broad array of viewpoints in the classroom. Tress talks about mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani and his threats to arrest Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu if he ever visited New York, as well as the current feud between New York City Mayor Eric Adams and Comptroller Brad Lander about a possible BDS conflict over New York's divestment from Israel bonds. He also mentions the 100-year-old Adirondacks synagogue that has persisted despite the dearth of Jews in the area and the history of Jewish immigrants in rural America.
