Editor’s Note

We are pleased to announce that our redesign is looking fabulous. Not only is the site gorgeous, it has search, the ability to upvote posts, make contact with journalists, and more!

But due to the fact that Wall Street goes quiet in the month of August, we have decided to delay our go-live until early September. This will give our sister-site more time to prepare for its debut (and secure press coverage) and ensure we get our re-launch right.

To everyone who has shared here or shown support: thank you. Every story makes it harder for abuse of power to remain hidden. Institutions can withstand criticism for a very long time. Its response to the truth is far more revealing than the truth itself.

Keep shining, ladies. As Dr. King said: “The arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends toward justice.”

    I met on a few occasions with the Senior MD leading remediation at Citi and her overseeing senior MD-level committee.
