Do you get the feeling that banks are sitting ducks about to be destroyed by new technologies, much in the same way the big record companies were washed away by streaming?

The Ultimate SWIFT and Russia Sanctions explainer You've probably been reading lots of people explaining SWIFT, but most explainers miss some key details like 👇 1. SWIFT is not a payment system. SWIFT is a messaging system (like email) used by 11,000 banks in 200+ countries

As you become an adult, you realize that things around you weren't just always there; people made them happen. But only recently have I started to internalize how much tenacity *everything* requires. That hotel, that park, that railway. The world is a museum of passion projects.

Incredible that a bank so big can fail so fast. The strategy, risk mgmt & decision making leading to this outcome are mind-boggling. Hopefully the fall out is contained. Very interesting week ahead. A good, concise explainer in the FT #SVB #SVBCollapse ft.com/content/b556ba…
