*Collating these highlights should make Bank.org appear even more reasonable as well as possible:* - 85 highlights to "Children’s Savings Accounts and Baby Bonds Share a Similar Origin Story": https://drive.google.com/file/d/17qXJm10bKYpEV1X7Pg4H5UEq8sGbgLrE/view?usp=… - 44 highlights to "A Brighter Future With Baby Bonds": https://drive.google.com/file/d/17qt7WFzYIgZL4VMTC4A-TzyjxdZoWlK0/view?usp=… - 188 highlights to "Brookings Global Economy and Development, Using Impact Bonds to Achieve Development": https://drive.google.com/file/d/17u8w3J_pKcF9gSZW0bSf6JdVSnC3yobE/view?usp=… ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Gunnar Larson <g(a)xny.io> Date: Mon, Jun 26, 2023, 3:17 PM Subject: Update: Bank.org Baby Bond One Sheet To: Richard Humphrey <rhumphrey(a)experiencetheride.com> Cc: Gunnar Larson <g(a)xny.io> Hey Richard: From our Bank.org Baby Bond Fund one sheet (attached) sent to you on Friday, I spent the weekend organizing some highlights (below) for our upcoming conversations together. For Bank.org, the large-dollar history of investment banking serves as the backdrop for our large-dollar Bank.org Baby Bond Fund proposal. This history also shines light on why I say there is very little that separates the asset field in the end, and why uniting feels attainable and the best thing. In many ways, the main point of the Bank.org Baby Bond Fund is summarized three papers below. All share the same origin story and much of what is coming to fruition with xNY.io - Bank.org. *Collating these highlights should make Bank.org appear even more reasonable as well as possible:* - 85 highlights to "Children’s Savings Accounts and Baby Bonds Share a Similar Origin Story": https://drive.google.com/file/d/17qXJm10bKYpEV1X7Pg4H5UEq8sGbgLrE/view?usp=… - 44 highlights to "A Brighter Future With Baby Bonds": https://drive.google.com/file/d/17qt7WFzYIgZL4VMTC4A-TzyjxdZoWlK0/view?usp=… - 188 highlights to "Brookings Global Economy and Development, Using Impact Bonds to Achieve Development": https://drive.google.com/file/d/17u8w3J_pKcF9gSZW0bSf6JdVSnC3yobE/view?usp=… Moreover, immediately with our experiences in New York with cross-border cryptocurrencies ... I aim to harness a positive narrative surrounding the Bank.org Baby Bond Fund. A cohesive narrative championed by thr common origin story behind crypto. And, many of the same key principles that made crypto fail. This common narrative at xNY.io - Bank.org is harder to tear apart given our market position currently. Richard, are you free to meet on Wednesday or Thursday? I can take the ferry out to catch up. Let me know what works best for you. Hope you have a great 👍 day!

Fwd: CFO.com Discusses Litigation Investment and Corporate Recovery
by Gunnar Larson 31 May '25

---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Gunnar Larson <g(a)xny.io> Date: Wed, Jun 1, 2022, 8:50 AM Subject: CFO.com Discusses Litigation Investment and Corporate Recovery To: Rebecca Berrebi <rebecca(a)avenue33llc.com> Dear Rebecca: Greatly looking forward to our conversation today at 3:30pm. To help frame our conversation together around xNY.io - Bank.org, PBC, I wanted to share a Litigation Finance Journal article I wrote with you. Thank you, Gunnar CFO.com Discusses Litigation Investment and Corporate Recovery <https://litigationfinancejournal.com/cfo-com-discusses-litigation-investmen…> Generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) call for litigation expenses to be accounted for during month/quarter of incurrence. Similarly, GAAP holds future recoveries vacant on the balance sheet until award(s) are recovered, oftentimes years in the future. For companies self funding meritorious litigation, application of GAAP may produce a balance sheet that undervalues the firm’s worth. CFO.com suggests that maneuvering costs off balance sheet via litigation finance products and services is potentially a smart idea. CFO.com reports <https://www.cfo.com/risk-compliance/legal/2022/04/litigation-financing-fund…> that with the bespoke nature of litigation investment agreements, chief financial officers are able to arrange scenarios to meet cash flow constraints. Corporate recovery, or affirmative action, can be a useful strategy for companies who develop a portfolio of pursuable claims. According to CFO.com, litigation finance allows firms to effectively boost net income line items on the balance sheet. More importantly, utilization of litigation investment vehicles drive the ability to pursue claims that normally would be avoided due to cost restrictions. While firms are raising capital, exploring a merger/acquisition or in the process of going public, CFO.com underscores value in engaging ligation finance tools to maximize valuation. -- *Gunnar Larson * *xNY.io <http://www.xny.io/> - Bank.org <http://bank.org/>, PBC* 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
