Ahh, Switzerland – the land of cheese, chocolate, and… banking regulation? While you may not associate the alpine nation with strict rules on financial institutions, if you come across speakers of Financese, you will hear about the Basel committee.

To help us sort out everything, we are joined once again on ‘A Dictionary of Finance’ podcast by Vincent Thunus. You may recall he was on our show a few weeks ago to play a banking game that he developed to teach high school students about credit risk, liquidity risk, and other risks.
