Caitria and Morgan O Neill How to step up in the face of disaster

Morgan O'Neill So, on June 1st we weren't disaster experts, but on June 3rd we started faking it.

Defenders of the megabanks Citi, JP Morgan Chase, Bank of America, Wells Fargo, Goldman Sachs, and Morgan Stanley dismiss Warren as an avatar of left wing populism. But this is a serious misconception in fact, Warren is attracting a great deal of support from the center and the right.

The profits of the investment banking oligarchy (the handful of global investment banks, including Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, and JP Morgan Chase, among others) were far in excess of what any competitive market ought to deliver, owing to these banks deep pockets and ability to maneuver through thickets of regulations.

See, e.g., communications Nos. 210 1986 and 225 1987, Earl Pratt and Ivan Morgan v. Jamaica, Views adopted on 6 April 1989, para.

According to popular vote, the voice of US actor Morgan Freeman will be used for Jarvis, the domestic AI helper Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg built himself.

One could emulate J.P. Morgan, whose standard response to questions about stock prices, bond prices, and interest rates was to say simply, The market will fluctuate.

(Full disclosure I am now an independent Director of Morgan Stanley.) My successors have all come from the financial sector, however, which, until recently, was regarded as a sign that they were street wise.

A few years ago, I felt like I was stuck in a rut, so I decided to follow in the footsteps of the great American philosopher, Morgan Spurlock, and try something new for 30 days.

Jamie Dimon, CEO of JP Morgan Chase, presided this year over reckless risk taking to the tune of nearly 6 billion (we might call it a three Grübel debacle), yet his job apparently remains secure. Dimon even remains on the board of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, despite the fact that the New York Fed is deeply involved in the investigation not only of JP Morgan Chase s trading losses, but also of its potential involvement in the broadening Libor scandal.

Pecora turned next to the investment banks. This time, the revelation was that J.P. Morgan Co. had provided special access to initial public offerings for prominent public figures, including a former treasury secretary and future Supreme Court justice.

The number of companies issuing sustainability reports has grown from fewer than 30 in the early 1990s to more than 7,000 in 2014. And, in a recent Morgan Stanley survey, 71 of respondents stated that they are interested in sustainable investing.

Elaine Morgan is a tenacious proponent of the aquatic ape hypothesis the idea that humans evolved from primate ancestors who dwelt in watery habitats. Hear her spirited defense of the idea and her theory on why mainstream science doesn't take it seriously.

Floods in Thailand last year threw 700,000 people out of work and had knock on economic effects around the world. The Economist reports that American bank JP Morgan has estimated that the disaster set back global industrial production by a surprisingly large 2.5 .

Obama is right to get tough with the six largest US banks including JP Morgan Chase, Goldman Sachs, Citigroup, and Bank of America which now have total assets worth more than 60 of GDP. This is an unprecedented degree of financial concentration.

The stock exchange boom of the early 1870 s was followed by collapse in 1873 and a witch hunt for those responsible. In 1907, J.P. Morgan was first viewed as the savior of the market, and then as the enemy of the commonweal.

To some of its participants, collecting contemporary art showed how finance had become much more of a creative process than it was the world of the older financiers. Morgan or Mellon collected largely old masters from the cinquecento, whose reputation was clearly and solidly established.

Six days later, the same coalition plus reinforcement forces from the Lower Shabeellaha and some other militia groups met with the Juba Valley Alliance in Dhoobley, located 200 kilometres north of Kismaayo, in order to support confrontation against the militia of General Mohamed Said Hersi Morgan .

Morgan Stanley s Ruchir Sharma has emphasized that the winners of the last decade may not continue to win in this one. Even Jim O Neill, who coined the term BRIC, has turned his attention to the MINT economies Mexico, Indonesia, Nigeria, and Turkey the BRICS key emerging country competitors.

The Morgan Stanley analysis suggests that we can expect another 70 billion in fines and litigation costs over the next two years from already identified errors and omissions. And new episodes could emerge two years ago, no one anticipated the fallout from the manipulation of the foreign exchange markets.

It seems that this thinking is heavily influenced by recent record highs in stock markets, even if these levels are practically meaningless, given inflation. Notably, just a month ago the Morgan Stanley Capital International All Country World Index broke the record that it reached on October 31, 2007.

The world s next great commercial center was Amsterdam, where again the successful burghers pushed for a new style of art and produced the age of Rembrandt. The great nineteenth and early twentieth century financiers, men like J.P. Morgan, Henry Frick, and Andrew Mellon, spent a large part of their fortunes on art.

The second view proved to be spectacularly wrong. Within 24 hours of Lehman s failure, the US authorities were scrambling to prevent asset fire sales, a run on money market mutual funds, the collapse of other investment banks (such as Merrill Lynch, Morgan Stanley, and Goldman Sachs), and even the demise of large, integrated, global banks (such as Citigroup).

Drugs that make it to market have to fund the cost of failure of those that did not make it to the market. As a recent Morgan Stanley report pointed out, the pharmaceutical industry s current success rates are not sufficient to sustain large internal R amp D organizations, making the industry s current operating model financially non viable.

Thomas Hoenig, vice chairman of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, publishes his own calculation of capital levels at the world s largest banks, and these data are now available through the end of 2014. The most leveraged big US bank, Morgan Stanley, has less than 4 equity, meaning that 96 of its balance sheet is some form of debt.

Two notable holdouts are Jamie Dimon and Walter Bagehot. Dimon, the Chairman and CEO of J.P. Morgan, has been making his contrarian views known to regulators, most recently almost coming to blows, according to eyewitnesses, in a spat with Governor of the Bank of Canada Mark Carney, who chairs a group that is designing parts of the new regime.

The breakdown was fundamentally a liquidity crisis, and liquidity was easily restored in several ways the New York banks issued their own liquidity through a clearing house one massively powerful financial institution, J.P. Morgan, bought up collapsing shares, and thus reversed a market panic and a scramble for liquidity and European central banks supplied gold to the American market.

After a natural disaster strikes, there s only a tiny window of opportunity to rally effective recovery efforts before the world turns their attention elsewhere. Who should be in charge? When a freak tornado hit their hometown, sisters Caitria and Morgan O Neill just 20 and 24 at the time took the reins and are now teaching others how to do the same.

Similarly, a new framework recently proposed by Morgan Stanley for valuations of companies in 29 industries includes ESG factors that pose material risks or opportunities. Whereas a company is traditionally valued based exclusively on how it deploys financial capital to generate returns, the new framework incorporates how it deploys natural, human, and social capital, as well as the transparency of its governance practices.

Historians will argue whether forcing Lehman Brothers into bankruptcy in September 2008 precipitated the subsequent global financial crisis. Vincent Reinhart, formerly of the US Federal Reserve and now at Morgan Stanley, has argued that the Lehman decision was correct (the error came earlier, with the bailout of Bear Stearns, which created an expectation that all banks would be bailed out).

To be sure, a major barrier to incorporating ESG criteria into investment decisions remains many investors including 54 of the respondents in the Morgan Stanley survey believe that doing so could lower the financial rate of return. But there is mounting evidence that this is not the case, with several recent studies indicating that sustainable investments do as well as or even outperform traditional investments.

The more important reason, though, is that even 4.3 billion is small change when compared to the total fines and litigation costs incurred by the major banks over the last five years. Morgan Stanley analysts estimate that the top 22 banks in the United States and Europe have been forced to pay 230 billion since 2009 more than 50 times the cost of the FCA settlement.

In 2012, American prime money market funds, which buy bank and corporate debt, were worth nearly 1.5 trillion. The money flowing through these funds went to many of the world s largest banks, including not just the obvious US suspects (JP Morgan Chase, Bank of America, and Citi), but also major European and Japanese banks such as Barclays, Deutsche Bank, Bank of Tokyo, Sumitomo, Credit Suisse, and ING.

In the most recent elections, Zimbabweans made their choice known, despite serious obstacles and widespread repression, with the MDC s presidential candidate, Morgan Tsvangirai, gaining more votes than Mugabe. But, according to the vote counts released by the government after a suspicious month long delay, the MDC s margin of victory 48 to 43 fell short of the 50 required to avoid a run off election.

Suddenly, as today, even big banks did not trust each other. The breakdown was fundamentally a liquidity crisis, and liquidity was easily restored in several ways the New York banks issued their own liquidity through a clearing house one massively powerful financial institution, J.P. Morgan, bought up collapsing shares, and thus reversed a market panic and a scramble for liquidity and European central banks supplied gold to the American market.
