Podcast appearances and mentions of Nick Leeson

Welcome to another Book Club edition! In this episode, host Kimberley Cole sits down with Penny Cagan, industry veteran, academic at Columbia and NYU, and author of Managing Operational Risk in a Changing World. From navigating the "heady days" of Basel II in the immediate aftermath of Nick Leeson's Barings debacle to building the world's first operational risk database, Penny has spent her career gently exploding conventional thinking. She joins us to discuss why change initiatives fail when you only convince the C-suite, why the second line of defence needs to stop acting like an armchair referee, and how treating AI agents like messy human employees is the key to modern governance.

In 1995, Nick Leeson brought down the UK's oldest merchant bank, Barings, with £862 million in hidden losses. The final hit to Barings was £827 million, triggering one of the biggest financial collapses in history. He explains how it really happened and how things spiralled over time. Was it fear of failure, the pressure to succeed, or something deeper that kept him going?

In this episode of Market Maker by AmplifyME, we sit down with Nick Leeson to explore trading psychology, risk management and what it takes to survive public failure after the collapse of Barings Bank and more than $1.3 billion in losses.At just 25 years old, Leeson was running a derivatives operation in Singapore during the high-pressure culture of 1990s banking. What followed brought down a 233-year-old institution and became one of the most infamous events in modern financial history. But this conversation goes far beyond the headlines.We examine the psychology behind catastrophic risk, the pressure to succeed at a young age, and how ego and fear of failure can quietly distort decision-making. Nick reflects on the culture inside investment banking at the time, the compounding effect of hidden mistakes, and what resilience really means after prison, public scrutiny and rebuilding a life from scratch.For anyone pursuing a career in trading, investment banking or financial markets, this episode offers a rare and candid perspective on ambition, accountability and the true cost of unchecked pressure.Market Maker by AmplifyME brings you conversations with the people who've experienced the highs and lows of global financial markets and the lessons they learned along the way.(00:00) The Rogue Trader Story(02:25) Growing Up & First Ambitions(04:36) Entering the City(10:24) Morgan Stanley & Big Bang(14:33) Fast Promotions in Finance(22:44) Joining Barings(25:06) Singapore at 25(29:41) When Pressure Builds(31:57) Managing Without Mentors(34:14) Getting on With Everyone(37:38) Status, Culture & Ego(42:14) Stress Was Off The Charts(42:58) The Losses Spiral(48:35) Ethics & Accountability(52:14) Fear of Failure(55:45) Prison & Resilience

Thatcher and her capitalist dreamers' next big gamble was a radical shake-up of London's financial sector. They called it Big Bang. Seemingly overnight, the stuffy old City of London was replaced by a fast-paced world of risk-takers, rule-breakers, and yuppies brandishing mobile phones the size of their head. It was a golden age of capitalism, where fortunes were made at lightning speed and the stakes were just as high. Nick Leeson was a working-class kid from Watford who arrived at just the right time. By 1995 he was a superstar trader. He was a poster boy for Thatcher's Britain. Poor kid gets rich. But then something happened that turned him from a hero to a criminal on the run. Did the very thing that spurred on his success precipitate his downfall? And what did that mean for the Thatcherite revolution. This is a story of the boom and bust of the 80s.David Dimbleby traces the history of an idea that spans his life. It started on a chicken farm in Sussex, gained traction in the shadows of post-war London and rose to heights of excess in the new champagne bars of the City. It's 2025 and this once radical idea now defines every aspect of life in Britain. An idea that transformed the economy, politics and, ultimately, society itself.But how did it happen? Who are the little-known people behind it? What did they want? And - as Donald Trump threatens to overturn the global economic system - is the free market here to stay? Or are we entering a new era?Presenter: David Dimbleby Producer: Jo Barratt Executive Producers and Story Editors: Joe Sykes and Dasha Lisitsina Sound design: Peregrine Andrews Commissioning Editor: Dan ClarkeA Samizdat Audio production for BBC Radio 4

Three decades on from the collapse of Barings Bank the prospect of sweeping deregulation in the financial system risks paving the way for a repeat. That at least is the opinion of Nick Leeson, the former rogue derivatives trader who brought down one of the UK’s most venerated financial institutions. He sat down with Bloomberg Radio Anchor Caroline Hepker and Finance Reporter Will Shaw for an exclusive conversation about how banking has changed in thirty years, how he rebuilt his life after time in jail, and where he imagines the next 'rogue trader' might come from.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode, we unravel the gripping story of Nick Leeson, the infamous rogue trader whose unchecked ambition and high-risk strategies led to the catastrophic collapse of Barings Bank, one of Britain's oldest and most prestigious financial institutions. From his rapid rise through the ranks to the devastating fallout of his actions, Leeson's tale is a cautionary story of hubris, deception, and the failure of financial oversight. We begin by exploring Leeson's early career, his move to Singapore, and his rapid ascension at Barings Bank. A seemingly brilliant trader, he was trusted to run operations and manage trades for the bank. However, behind the scenes, Leeson was secretly amassing losses in a hidden account, taking increasingly reckless gambles in a desperate bid to recover. The episode delves into the events that led to the unraveling of Leeson's deception, focusing on the collapse of the Japanese stock market in 1995. This catastrophic event exposed the massive $1.4 billion hole in Barings' finances, caused by Leeson's unauthorized trades. We examine how his actions—and the bank's lack of oversight—created a perfect storm that ultimately led to Barings' downfall. We also explore the aftermath of the scandal, including Leeson's dramatic escape from Singapore, his subsequent arrest, and the six-and-a-half years he spent in prison. We reflect on the personal toll of his actions, both on Leeson and those around him, and the broader implications for the financial world. His story forced banks and regulators to rethink risk management, internal controls, and accountability within the trading world. Join us as we dive into this dramatic tale of ambition and excess, examining how one man's actions brought down a centuries-old institution. This episode isn't just about Leeson's infamous trades—it's a deep look at the human and systemic failures that allowed his actions to go unchecked, and the lessons the financial world continues to learn from his legacy.   Talk2TheHand is an independent throwback podcast run by husband and wife, Jimmy and Beth.

Ep #52 with Oonagh van den Berg (RAW Compliance)Oonagh van den Berg, a seasoned international compliance professional, is the founder of RAW Compliance, a consultancy and training firm. With a legal background and two decades of experience in London, Hong Kong, and Singapore, Oonagh has become a respected figure in the compliance industry. Her upbringing in Northern Ireland during the violent era of "The Troubles" in the 1980s shaped her resilience and determination, leading her to a career as a lawyer, compliance officer, recruiter, consultant, and educator. In this episode of Regulatory Ramblings, Oonagh discusses with Ajay Shamdasani the critical role of artificial intelligence (AI) in combating financial scams, deepfakes, and sextortion. These issues have become increasingly prevalent, especially in the dark corners of Web3. Oonagh's perspective is deeply personal, as her 13-year-old daughter and friends recently fell victim to blackmail after sharing innocent photos on Snapchat. This experience has driven her to raise awareness and produce educational videos through RAW Compliance, targeting pre-teens, teenagers, and young adults to prevent similar incidents. A Europol poll highlights the growing use of AI by cybercriminals to commit complex and dangerous crimes. Malicious large language models (LLMs) are being utilized to craft scripts, phishing emails, and fraud advertisements, as well as to groom victims across language barriers. The rise of AI-altered and fully artificial child sexual abuse materials, which are increasingly realistic, has led to devastating consequences, including blackmail and suicides. Oonagh also touches on her firm's groundbreaking collaboration with Nick Leeson, the infamous former Barrings trader, to support victims of financial scams and assist in asset recovery. Together, they aim to provide the necessary help and guidance for victims to reclaim their financial futures.  She also criticizes banks for their insufficient efforts in helping scam victims, citing outdated technology and inadequate fraud detection systems. The scale of financial crime is alarming, with over 3.5 million people in the UK affected annually, leading to losses exceeding £1.2 billion. The problem is similarly severe across Europe and the US, with losses reaching billions of euros and dollars, respectively. The conversation explores how financial institutions can navigate evolving regulations, monitor for child sexual abuse materials (CSAM), and investigate human trafficking within both traditional and decentralized financial systems. Oonagh emphasizes the challenges of global technology use in combating these crimes and provides estimates on the total value of suspected CSAM transactions using fiat versus cryptocurrency. Oonagh concludes by highlighting the financial sector's failure to take responsibility for anti-money laundering, human trafficking, and financial scams. She stresses the importance of understanding suspicious red flags and typologies that can aid in investigations, a crucial takeaway for both traditional financial crime compliance professionals and blockchain investigators. HKU FinTech is the leading fintech research and education in Asia.

Nick Leeson is CEO of Bull & Bear Capital and former derivatives trader notorious for the collapse of Barings Bank, the United Kingdom's oldest merchant bank. Nick was the “Rogue Trader” who made fraudulent, unauthorized and speculative trades, and his actions led directly to the 1995 collapse of the bank, for which he was sentenced to prison in Singapore.⏺️ Voics: https://www.voics.co/

A los más jóvenes es probable que el nombre de Nick Leeson ni siquiera les suene. Pero fue el protagonista del primer gran escándalo financiero de la era moderna, allá por los 90. Un fraude que se llevó por delante la entidad para la que trabajaba, Barings Bank, la más antigua de Reino Unido, y entre cuyos clientes estaba la antigua reina de Inglaterra, Isabel II.Todo ocurrió en 1995, y todo fue, básicamente, un fraude. Leeson, nacido en Watford, Reino Unido, empezó a trabajar como empleado de banca privada en Coutts, cuando no tenía ni 20 años. En 1987 se incorporó a Morgan Stanley, donde estuvo dos años más, hasta que en 1989 llegó a Baring Brothers.Y empieza la debacle. En 1992, cuando ya acumulaba algunos años de experiencia en la bolsa a pesar de su juventud, Barings le nombra gerente general de una nueva operativa de mercados de futuros en Singapur. Lo que ni él ni el banco revelaron entonces es que en Reino Unido le habían denegado la licencia de corredor de bolsa, por un fraude en su solicitud. En un principio, Leeson se dedicó a invertir en el mercado de futuros del Nikkei japonés, y con buenos resultados. Pero, al mismo tiempo, y casi desde el principio, también realizó operaciones especulativas no autorizadas, que también le estaban dando grandes beneficios a Barings. Los 10 millones de libras que obtuvo equivalían al 10% de las ganancias anuales del banco. Gracias a ese éxito logró un bonus de 130.000 libras, que superaba por mucho a los 50.000 libras anuales que tenía de sueldo.Cuenta la leyenda, difundida por el propio Leeson, que todo empezó a complicarse por un acto de solidaridad. Tenía a una joven ayudante, Kim Wong, de origen chino. Él quería contratar a alguien de más experiencia, pero su jefe prefería a alguien que cobrase poco, como pasaba con Wong, cuyo salario era solo de 4.000 libras anuales.En una tarde especialmente complicada, con el aire acondicionado estropeado y mucho estrés, Wong cometió un error: vendió 20 contratos en lugar de comprarlos, como el cliente había pedido. Un error de 20.000 libras. Para proteger a su compañera, Leeson creó una cuenta falsa, a la que llamó 88888. Su objetivo, consciente de que no era un fallo tan grande, era ocultarlo en esa cuenta hasta poder subsanarlo. Lejos de solventar ese error, Leeson empezó a usar esa cuenta para ocultar otras operaciones deficitarias que estaba llevando a cabo él mismo. Para el final de 1992, las pérdida de esa cuenta superaban los 2 millones de libras. Pero no pasaba nada, ya había resuelto situaciones más complicadas otras veces. Como cuando, estando largo en el Nikkei, el mercado se hundió en picado. Trató de comprar más para compensarlo, pero llegó un momento en el que se quedó sin dinero para cubrir las garantías de su posición, como recuerdan desde Finect. Para lograr capital, y aprovechando el apetito de mercado por invertir a la baja en el Nikkei, decidió vender opciones de venta, y utilizar esas primas para pagar las garantías de sus futuros del Nikkei. El mercado comenzó a subir, y logró recuperar todas las pérdidas acumuladas.Leeson creía que había encontrado una fórmula infalible, así que empieza a repetir la operación, ya para incrementar sus beneficios y no para cubrir pérdidas. Sus posiciones llegaron a representar el 40% de este mercado. Y le iba bien.Todo colapsa en enero de 1995. Leeson realizó una pequeña inversión en la bolsa de Tokio, apostando a que el mercado se mantendría estable. Pero al día siguiente, un importante terremoto en Kobe hundió los mercados asiáticos. Las posiciones comerciales del inversor se fueron al traste. En una huída hacia adelante desesperada, Leeson empieza a hacer operaciones cada vez más arriesgadas, para tratar de recuperar las pérdidas. Pero no acierta.Desesperado, el 23 de febrero dejó una nota en la oficina que decía 'Lo siento', y huyó. Las pérdidas equivalían a 1.400 millones de dólares, dos veces el capital disponible del banco. Tras un intento de rescate, que fracasó, se declaró en quiebra, y fue adquirido por ING por 1 libra, a cambio de asumir su pasivo.Era el fin del banco comercial más antiguo de Reino Unido. La entidad había sido fundada en 1763, y participó en grandes operaciones, financiando la construcción del canal de Panamá o la compra de Luisiana a Francia por parte de Estados Unidos. Gestionó la salida a bolsa de Guinness, la marca de cerveza, en Londres, que necesitó la intervención de la policía montada para que los inversores invadieran la sede de Barings con sus solicitudes de compra. También fue conocido por ser el banco de la reina Isabel II, que tenía un depósito por valor de 40 millones de libras. Pero las maniobras fraudulentas pesaron más que su historia.Leeson, sin embargo, se defiende acusando al banco de haberle supervisado. La gerencia le permitió durante toda su estancia en Singapur ocupar los cargos de jefe comercial y el responsable de liquidar sus operaciones, trabajos que habitualmente realizan dos personas diferentes. Una situación que, no cabe duda, le facilitó ocultar sus pérdidas ante sus superiores. El informe de las autoridades de Singapur coincide, en parte, con la apreciación de Leeson, y interpela a la administración de Barings por no haber sabido nada de la cuenta de 'los cinco ochos'. Leeson también acusó a sus superiores de no saber nada del funcionamiento del mercado de futuros, pero como en su posición no podían reconocer que sabían menos que él, pues le siguieron mandando dinero, casi a ciegas. Finalmente, Leeson se declaró culpable de dos cargos: engañar a los auditores del banco, y engañar a la bolsa de Singapur, incluyendo la falsificación de documentos. Fue condenado a 6 años de cárcel, aunque en 1999 fue liberado, tras serle diagnosticado un cáncer de colón que parecía definitivo, pero del que milagrosamente sobrevivió.No volvió a los mercados, y desde entonces se ha dedicado a escribir libros de todo pelaje, a dar conferencias sobre marketing, e incluso fue el director de un equipo de fútbol irlandés. Con una mezcla de ironía y seriedad, también ha tendido a ponerse de ejemplo de los peligros que el sistema financiero debe evitar, y señala que hay muchos bancos que siguen siendo vulnerables a casos como el suyo. Si sus trucos hubieran salido bien, se hubiera convertido en uno de los grandes inversores de la historia, pero al salirle mal, quebró el banco más antiguo de Reino Unido.

You're 30 years old, worth billions as a result of a crypto exchange you've set up - and in the space of one Sunday afternoon it all turns to dust. What must that feel like? On this episode of The News Agents we speak to someone who's been there, done that and has got the badge (the prison sentence). Nick Leeson single-handedly brought down one of Britain's most famous financial institutions in 1995 - Barings Bank - and spent four years in a Singapore jail as a result. He speaks to us about the tight spot Sam Bankman Fried now finds himself in, and how similar it was to his own.Planning: Melissa TutesigensiSocial Media: Georgia FoxwellVideo: Will Gibson-SmithProduction: Gabriel Radus Deputy Editor: Tom HughesExecutive Producer: Dino SofosFor exclusive daily videos from The News Agents visit Global Player: https://www.globalplayer.com/videos/brands/news-agents/the-news-agents/The News Agents is a Global Player Original and a Persephonica Production.

What do Alchemy and Magic have to do with human decision-making?On this episode, I'm joined by two Behavioural Science gurus who have both been on the show before: Rory Sutherland and Paul Craven. Rory is the author of Alchemy: The Surprising Power of Ideas That Don't Make Sense. Paul Craven is a magician and member of the prestigious Magic Circle. So that's both bases covered! Rory is the Vice Chairman of Ogilvy, and Paul began his career in Finance with over 30 years working for Schroders, PIMCO and Goldman Sachs. Both are Behavioural Science thought leaders.Since the show is approaching its 200th episode — this is the 199th — I thought I ought to celebrate it. So I did what we always do when we celebrate special occasions and decided to replicate the winning formula I used last time. On that occasion, I was joined by Rory Sutherland and Gerald Ashley. Since then, I've also recorded a doubleheader with Gerald and his and Rory's good friend Paul Craven. Like Rory and Gerald, Paul has also done a solo appearance on the show. So for two episodes, I'm joined by Rory Sutherland and Paul Craven. 
In our discussion — and I'm just talking about this episode here — we talk about framing, ethics, Sludge, electric cars, the best joke at this year's Edinburgh festival — warning, it's an adult joke — the Pratfall Effect, or why making mistakes can make us seem more human, ho one man saved the world from a nuclear war, the Beatles, how we look at data and so much more.

Join me and my guest Ivan Tyrrell as we dive into the basic fundamentals of what it means to be a thriving and emotionally healthy human being. Based on his co-authored work "Human Givens: a New Approach to Emotional Health and Clear Thinking" Ivan shares the fundamental necessities that all humans share. We dive into what doesn't work about modern psychotherapy, why REM state and dreaming is essential for our health, how trance and hypnosis is essential for learning and even into the nature of consciousness. Ivan Tyrrell worked for many years as a psychotherapist (specialising in brief therapy for depression and anxiety). He now spends most of his time lecturing and writing. As a Director of Human Givens College, editorial director of the Human Givens Journal, and board member of the Human Givens Institute, his influence in (and knowledge of) the field of psychotherapy and counseling is considerable. In 1992 he and a group of psychologists and psychotherapists established the European Therapy Studies Institute (ETSI), whose aim was to discover why some psychotherapy approaches appeared to work and others didn't. ETSI quickly gained several hundred members from a wide variety of professions whose support enabled them to publish a journal, The Therapist, the forerunner of the Human Givens journal. The human givens approach to psychotherapy and psychology developed out of the work and research of this group as they endeavored to bring greater clarity to the way people who become depressed, anxious, traumatized or addicted are helped, as well as making such help more reliably effective. Ivan is also co-author with Joe Griffin of numerous, influential titles, including: Human Givens: the new approach to emotional health and clear thinking How to lift depression… fast Why we dream: the definitive answer Freedom from Addiction: The secret behind successful addiction busting How to Master Anxiety An Idea in Practice: Using the human givens approach Release from Anger: Practical help for controlling unreasonable rage Godhead: The Brain's Big Bang – the explosive origin of creativity, mysticism and mental illness View all here > and five ground-breaking monographs on psychology and counselling including The APET model: patterns in the brain, which brings cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) and SFBT approaches into line with new scientific discoveries about how the brain works, and The Shackled Brain: how to release locked-in patterns of trauma and Hypnosis and Trance States which gave the first psychobiological explanation for hypnosis. Other titles include: The Survival Option, published by Jonathan Cape and Back from the Brink: Coping with stress, published by Virgin Books, which he co-wrote with Nick Leeson. He is a founder member of The Conciliators Guild.   Join me at my upcoming 4 day event RESONANCE or another event: spohntrained.com/events

Barings bank was established in 1762. It was the United Kingdom's oldest merchant bank and at one point, was called 'the sixth great European power. Nick Leeson was a wunderkind. Everything he touched, everything he traded turned to gold. He didn't even pass his Math A'levels, yet he seemed to have an instinctive grasp of the market. He was eventually placed in charge of the Singapore branch of the Barings bank. About four years after Nick became the General Manager of the Singapore branch, Barings bank was sold for one British Pound. How did Nick bankrupt the Barings Bank...?
