Introduction
Crypto and Blockchain are each a Human Right.
For all, everywhere.
How does New York based bank fraud happen from the inside? People who commit crimes comprise departments and divisions of corporate organizations, and some current Human Resources (HR) management cultures lend well to the committing of crimes.
What organizational HR management design structures are at play to architectect such fraud for bespoke juristical instances?
Is there a unique opportunity for a fresh and clean New York-based international bank such as Bank.org?
xNY.io argues that modern and innovative Executive Suites pioneer organizational HR management with the CEO and CFO leading the pack as the most ethical example for members in their organization. This key distinction calls for leaders to always adhere to a very strict, yet progressive, standard of ethics, even when it’s inconvenient.
