Rigged financial markets and hopeless under-regulation on Wall Street are not new problems. In this book, Susanne Trimbath gives a sobering account of naked short-selling, the failure to settle, and her efforts over decades trying to get this fixed. This is a cautionary tale. What started as a regulatory failure turned into a regulatory crisis. Shareholder democracy is in shambles. The institutions that were established to correct a problem of trade settlement failures have instead exacerbated the problem. Global financial markets may not survive what comes next.

No es una pandilla, no es una célula de un grupo mayor ni tampoco una banda doméstica, sino un auténtico cártel que logró apoderarse del centro del país, justo en las narices de las más altas autoridades. ¿Cómo lo hizo?

Up to eight billion dollars is lost annually to corruption, and no politician goes unexamined in this piercing review. From jungle justice to the corrupt kleptocracy that defines Nigeria’s ruling class today, I clearly give historical context to a modern but untenable problem. This important record speaks truth to power and documents the crushing consequences of political gaming.

Authentic, hard-hitting, and profoundly thought-provoking, this riveting real-life legal thriller offers an incendiary exposé of the turmoil and hidden dangers behind the trailblazing legalization of the cannabis industry. As the first-ever memoir of its kind, van Leynseele’s story provides a cautionary tale, pulling back the curtain on the systemic problems within legal marijuana, the institutional sexism still lurking in the legal profession, and the biases that lead to white-collar criminals exploiting the system and getting away with it.

Una investigación explosiva que desvelará la historia de España, desde el 23-F y la caída de la UCD hasta el felipismo y la consolidación de José María Aznar. La fuente de este riguroso y minucioso trabajo de investigación periodística es el archivo personal de Emilio Alonso Manglano, director del CESID entre 1981 y 1995: sus agendas, sus cuadernos de notas y los informes de inteligencia que guardó: una investigación de varios años repleta de secretos y ocultismo sobre el contenido de más de 200 kilos de documentos que desentrañan la historia nunca contada de España.
