Elliot Spitzer
The programs guest is Elliot Spitzer, former governor and attorney general of New York. He is joined by Mary Cranston, senior partner at Pillsbury Winthrop Shaw Pittman LLP, as the programs moderator. Spitzer prosecuted some of the most notorious white-collar crime and securities fraud cases on Wall Street. He now questions whether we have what it takes to regulate and reform the banking industry. Does too big to fail mean too big? Without successful financial regulatory reform, are we just waiting for the next economic meltdown? Spitzer will examine whether the Obama administration is up to the task or whether taxpayers may be on the hook for the next crisis.
