Protecting Against Third and Fourth Party Portfolio Risks
by Gunnar Larson 02 May '22

02 May '22

The state of third and fourth party risk(s) are high, according to a new whitepaper. Vinminder has released their “State of Third Party Risk 2022 Whitepaper” describing cutting edge third party and fourth party strategies. As an added bonus, Litigation Finance Journal has collated 40 highlights to the research. According to the whitepaper <https://drive.google.com/file/d/1U67qX9RXVwQswxk0vikSAYKtWwFmCPMV/view?usp=…>, managing third party risk is frustrating. When adding on assessment of fourth party risk hinged to third party relationships prudent planning is necessary. This can come in the form of third party loans to bad ESG borrowers <https://litigationfinancejournal.com/directors-who-manipulate-esg/>. Litigation investors seem to agree on the nature of third and fourth party risk, but the jury is out on overall responsibility to such claims. The first party is responsible for these matters according to Vinminder’s whitepaper. See our 40 highlights <https://drive.google.com/file/d/1U67qX9RXVwQswxk0vikSAYKtWwFmCPMV/view?usp=…> of the research. -- *Gunnar Larson - xNY.io <http://www.xNY.io> | Bank.org <http://Bank.org>* MSc <https://www.unic.ac.cy/blockchain/msc-digital-currency/?utm_source=Google&u…> - Digital Currency MBA <https://www.unic.ac.cy/business-administration-entrepreneurship-and-innovat…> - Entrepreneurship and Innovation (ip) G(a)xNY.io +1-646-454-9107 New York, New York 10001

Gramps should explain to us where the Rothschilds fit into his " GovCorp " conspiracy theory and and how all that is any different to Marxist-Communism in the slightest. I will stipulate to his expert-opinion on the Nazi-Punk though. https://www.reddit.com/r/CapitalismVSocialism/comments/7dwc4n/the_russian_l…

AB Digital Strategies is a Cayman Islands regulated hedge fund, which implements a market neutral strategy targeting meaningful absolute return, with low volatility and minimal correlation to crypto markets and mainstream asset classes.

Government agents who engage in COINTELPRO
by professor rat 02 May '22

02 May '22

In a weird throwback to the sixties we recently had an example of pure COINTELPRO here when Batshit Crazy ( now Nazi Punk ) made serial accusations of agency against list members. And when challenged to back-up his bullshit he declined. Lack of evidence presumably. Suspicion must surely be raised over him since his failed ' Govt Agent Truther " campaign. And also his allegiance to the KGB Russian dictatorship given his ' one-man-Troll-Farm ' antisemitic spam here. For a fascist nutcase who claims to hate the internet he also seems to spend most of his day on it. What a sorry loser. Nazi Punk FUCK OFF.

Cryptocurrency: Goldman Sachs Affirms Fiat Inferior by Offering Crypto Backed Loans

Goldman Sachs Offers Its First Bitcoin-Backed Loan https://bitcoinmagazine.com/business/goldman-sachs-offers-its-first-bitcoin… Goldman has reportedly offered its first ever lending facility backed by BTC as the Wall Street giant deepens its Bitcoin offerings. Goldman Sachs has offered its first bitcoin-backed loan. The arrangement, made popular over the past few years in the Bitcoin industry by newer companies, enables a bitcoin holder to obtain fiat money like U.S. dollars by putting up their BTC as collateral to the bank. If the price of bitcoin drops, the user may be required to increase their collateral, risking getting liquidated in case they fail to do so. The Wall Street giant lent cash collateralized by bitcoin owned by the borrower for the first time, a spokeswoman for the bank told Bloomberg. The deal was interesting to Goldman because of its structure and 24-hour risk management, she told the publication in an email. Bitcoin investors have commonly leveraged the setup to increase their holdings when the price of the digital currency dips. Based on the assumption that Bitcoin’s decade-long history of price appreciation will continue in the future, the user chooses to acquire more bitcoin with credit, without having to pay with their own cash. The loan type is also popular in another use case: making purchases. With a bitcoin-backed loan, a bitcoin holder can pay for goods or services with cash – for example, to buy a house or pay medical bills – without needing to sell their bitcoin. Not only does the user keep their bitcoin stash (provided they pay out the loan when it matures) but they also don’t have to worry about tax implications from a BTC sale. Bitcoin-backed loans have also become popular among bitcoin mining companies, which earn revenue in BTC but need to pay for their operating costs in U.S. dollars or other currencies. Historically, miners would sell part of their produced bitcoin to cover expenses, but over the past couple of years big players in the industry have grown fond of taking out cash loans with their bitcoin holdings. Goldman’s entrance into the bitcoin-backed loan business represents a watershed moment for the industry in terms of liquidity, legitimacy and optionality available for consumers. Bloomberg did not report the details of the loan.

Sholem Schwarzbard: Biography of a Jewish Assassin
by professor rat 02 May '22

Rosa Luxemburg was a Marxist. In the same text that the authors of “No War but the Class War” quote, she proclaims blithely that “Imperialist world domination is an historical necessity” and therefore that “imperialism ultimately works for us” [i.e., the proletariat]. https://anarchistnews.org/content/spirit-sholem-schwarzbard-addressing-conf… " . . . if you ask anarchists from Donbas and Crimea, they will tell you very clearly why so many people in Ukraine are risking their lives to fight the Russian army. We might as well have urged the residents of Kobanî to reject militarism back in 2014 when the Islamic State was besieging their city. Sometimes you do not have the choice to opt out of war.
