Listen "Lessons from The Big Short"
Episode Synopsis
Did the financial crisis leave us with any lessons that apply to a rapidly evolving payments industry? To dig into this question, the IPA staff recently read and had a discussion on Michael Lewis's book, The Big Short. The IPA's CEO, Brian Tate, and Chris Stromberg, our director of government relations joined Ben Jackson to discuss the book and what it can tell us about our current situation. This podcast is the inaugural episode for the IPA book club. Over the coming year we plan to read a number of books that address the theme of innovation inside the financial services industry and beyond. We invite our listeners to read along and let us know what you think. If you have a particularly strong opinion on one of our selections, we'd be happy to include you in an episode. Our March book will be The Age of Cryptocurrency, by Paul Vigna and Michael J. Casey. The IPA thanks our member sponsor, Netspend, for helping to make this show possible. This podcast was recorded on February 15, 2023. Things may have changed by the time you hear it.
