The Prudential

business · EN

Coming from a financial regulatory background, I’ve always been struck by how mysterious banking regulation and supervision can seem from the outside—buried under acronyms, models, dense rulebooks, and specialist language. The Prudential tries to make that world more accessible. Each episode explores banking regulation, supervision, financial risk, and financial stability: why banks need capital, how stress tests work, why liquidity matters, what supervisors actually do, and what happens when banks fail. The aim is to start with intuition, unpack the economics and real-world mechanics, and make complex topics understandable without oversimplifying them. Episodes are AI-generated and curated around topics, research, and ideas I select. No finance background required. Just curiosity about how the financial system really works. The Prudential — finance, risk, and policy, made less mysterious.
