“It’s an industry that rewards psychopaths.” As the global economy is potentially looking at a deep recession due to COVID-19 just after recovering from the 2008 financial crash, we hear from an ex-banker who worked in the City of London’s Square Mile from the mid-90s to 2008. He lifts the veil on the sordid world of investment banking where he enjoyed thousand-pound meals, sex parties with colleagues and £600k bonuses for “pushing around bits of paper”. He believes psychopaths in suits gamed the system while damaging society in the process. Informer is a series where we hear the anonymised confessions and insights of people on the inside of different industries, institutions and events. 0:00 Intro 0:43 History as an Investment Banker 1:25 Salary 2:00 Drugs in Banking 2:50 The “Perfect“ Job for a Psychopath 3:33 Insider Trading 5:37 How the Industry Has Changed Watch more from this series: The Pregnant Doc Telling the Truth About COVID-19 Ex-Con Explains the Corruption of Prison Guards Click here to subscribe to VICE: About VICE: The Definitive Guide To Enlightening Information.
