voldemort. just as he walked in the protesters took over. james diamond is a crook! he has taken $4 trillion in u.s. funds. this guy should be going to prison. him and 18 others. we need to listen shepard: they drag out 6 demonstrators and the ceo began testifying. he said they made mistakes and management was to blame for not catching them. the portfolio morphed into something thatiated new and potentially larger risks. as a result we let a lot of people down and we are sorry for it. what are you learned from this problem? i think that no matter how good you are, how competent people are, never ever get complacent in risk. challenge everything. make sure people on risk
