Page Text: About Speaker on ethical leadership… engaging leaders in responsible management According to the Wall Street Journal, CBS Evening News, and 60 Minutes, Richard Bowen is the Citigroup whistleblower who repeatedly warned Citi executive management about risky business practices and potential losses related to mortgage lending. As a Business Chief Underwriter for Citigroup during the housing bubble financial crisis meltdown, he saw fraud firsthand inside the organization. He watched with disbelief at the way the company certified poor mortgages as quality mortgages and sold them to Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac and other investors. For two years he repeatedly warned executive management and the board of directors. His warnings were ignored, despite the fact that withholding such information from shareholders and investors violated the Sarbanes-Oxley act. Citigroup eventually stripped him of all responsibilities, placed him on administrative leave and told him his presence was no longer required at the bank. Richard subsequently testified before the Securities and Exchange Commission and gave them 1,000 pages of evidence of fraudulent activities, with the bank bailouts occurring three months later. In 2010, Richard was a key witness in the mortgage mishaps as he gave nationally televised testimony before the Financial Crisis Inquiry Commission. He was shocked to see the orchestrated efforts to hide key parts of his testimony from the American public. Richard’s testimony has been widely quoted in numerous articles and pieces of litigation related to the meltdown. Despite years of extensive coverage and numerous subpoenas with additional testimony, he is dismayed that no one has been held accountable for what happened at Citigroup or other financial institutions, and no one has been prosecuted for the massive fraud that contributed to the financial crisis. Richard has taken the lessons learned from his 35 years of business experience and is now working with organizations that want to do things the right way. He speaks and consults with executives who want to build organizations with accountable and ethical corporate cultures. As a highly sought after speaker on ethical leadership, he shares his firsthand knowledge of how a company can get into ethical problems. More importantly, he explains in clear terms what an organization must do to instill effective guiding principles throughout the organization to prevent ethical misconduct and leadership missteps. Richard also reaches out to the up and coming business leaders as a professor of accounting at the University of Texas at Dallas. Penn Mutual Chairman, CEO, and President Eileen McDowell had this to say about Richard Bowen’s presentation to her organization: “Richard Bowen reinforced my motto that “there is no right way to do a wrong thing.” Long after his presentation, the conversation has continued about personal responsibility and the courage to challenge things that appear to be wrong. We encourage this dialog and rely on it to help make our business stronger.” His engaging stories keep audiences on the edge of their seats. His extensive research into corporate malfeasance and his personal experience of trying to prevent his own employer from going down a dangerous path, leave audiences inspired and enthused. He shares practical guiding principles to prevent potential mishaps that can be incorporated into their own organizations. The end result is more engaged employees, more responsible management and a recognition that a discipline of trust and transparency throughout an organization leads to a more profitable, productive company. Mr. Bowen has a B.S. in Mechanical Engineering from Texas Tech University and a Masters of Business Administration from the University of Texas at Austin. He is a Certified Public Accountant and was named CPA of The Year (2012) by the Dallas Society of CPA’s and Dallas’ D CEO Magazine recognized him as the 2012 recipient of its annual Financial Executives Award for Excellence in Corporate Governance. “I believe Richard Bowen is the only keynote speaker to ever receive a standing ovation from the Texas Society of CPA’s at any of its annual conferences.” ~ Fred Timmons, Chairman of The Texas Society of CPA’s Photo Gallery What People Are Saying About Richard M.

Richard Explains How Keeping Quiet Costs You Money! Richard Shares the High Price of Silence – GO TO JAIL! Richard’s Most Requested Programs Richard Bowen is THE speaker you need if you want to create a more ethical culture in your organization. Check out the videos below. His most popular presentations include: Playing for High Stakes: The Principles and Practice of Ethical Leadership The financial debacle of 2008 and the fallout it caused to our economic infrastructure has prompted increased concern of corporate moral and social responsibility and increased scrutiny of organizational behavior and the lack of ethical leadership exhibited by companies we previously held in high esteem. There is a zero tolerance and societal concern towards unethical behavior. Unethical behavior has a high cost: lack of trust on the part of customers, the public as well as employees. Diminishing loyalties mean fewer profits and less engaged employees. Based on Richard’s true life experience and client case studies, this no holds barred presentation focuses on the costs of unethical leadership and the steps an organization needs to take to instill guiding principles that become part of the corporate culture. It points out the slippery slope that leads to a lack of ethical culture and how to prevent this from happening within your own organization. Dark Citi: The Story of a Whistleblower As a Business Chief Underwriter for Citigroup during the housing bubble financial crisis meltdown, Richard saw fraud firsthand inside the organization. He saw the company certify poor mortgages as quality mortgages and sell them to Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac and other investors. For two years, Richard repeatedly warned executive management and the board of directors and was ignored. Eventually he was stripped of all responsibilities, placed on administrative leave and told his presence was no longer required. Richard has testified before the Securities and Exchange Commission and the nationally televised Financial Crisis Inquiry Commission. He has been interviewed by major venues from 60 Minutes to the New York Times and widely quoted in numerous articles and pieces of legislation related to the mortgage meltdown. He is concerned that we have not learned from the 2008 financial meltdown and are again headed in the same direction, with Citi writing directives that Congress is accepting that will loosen credit standards once again. He incorporates the harrowing story behind Citi and what led to his whistleblowing with lessons taken from his 35 years of businesses experience to give insights into how to prevent fraud and another financial crisis of even bigger dimensions. “Richard Bowen has been there, done that, and has the scars to prove it, and his message of corruption at the highest levels of industry and government needs to be heard. I only wish that more bankers had the courage that Bowen exhibits. He is not only one of the most talented bankers I have ever met, he has more integrity than all the bankers on Wall Street put together. If his former employer had listened to him taxpayers would not have had to bail out Citi for the third time in the last 30 years.” ~ Dennis McCuistion, Host of the McCuistion TV program

Page Title: What an Honor to Present to SEACEN in Kuala Lumpur!

Page Description:

Page Keywords:

Page Text: By Richard Bowen What an Honor to Present to SEACEN in Kuala Lumpur! I recently spoke in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia at a high-level conference on financial stability and supervision attended by top executives from the central banks of nineteen countries. The conference was sponsored by The South East Asian Central Banks ( SEACEN ) Research and Training Centre, based in Kuala Lumpur. SEACEN was established as a legal entity in 1982 with eight member Central Banks and has since grown to twenty Member Central Banks/Monetary Authorities . SEACEN stakeholders also include Associate and Observer Central Banks from an additional fifteen countries .   The SEACEN sphere of coverage now extends far beyond South East Asia, taking in countries as far west as Afghanistan and as far east as Fiji. Just as the Federal Reserve is the Central Bank of the United States, with responsibilities including monetary policy and bank supervision, SEACEN Central Banks have similar responsibilities. And SEACEN central bank programs also promote a better understanding of the financial, monetary, banking and economic development matters which are of specific interest to the countries in South East Asia or to the region as a whole. The conference participants, who included the key executives of the Central Banks over financial stability and/or supervision, were interested in learning about the issues that led to the U.S. financial crisis of 2008 so they could possibly avoid any similar issues and prevent the magnitude of what happened in the U.S. from occurring in their own countries. Richard Bowen with Mr. Glenn Tasky, Director, Financial Stability and Supervision and Dr. Hans Genberg, Executive Director, The SEACEN Centre When the banking industry in any country gets into trouble it usually leads to a financial crisis which, as we know, damages that country’s economy. To have the privilege of talking with this esteemed group of executives about the misbehavior and widespread fraud that led to the most recent crisis in the United States so they can identify and possibly curtail such banking fraud and thus prevent a financial crisis in their own countries, was indeed an honor. I wish our own Federal Reserve System had been as prescient and heeded the many warnings given to them before the crisis. I discussed whistleblowing and ethics and the specific type of fraud which was rampant during the financial crisis and is still present. That type of fraud is called “Accounting Control Fraud.” I identified examples of that fraudulent behavior which occurred when I was at Citigroup, noting that reports from other whistleblowers also reveal that accounting control fraud behavior existed in most of our other large banks, including Wells Fargo, Countrywide/BofA, and J.P. Morgan Chase. Accounting Control Fraud is where the management controlling a bank establishes very strict goals which must be met, and drives these goals and incentives down through the company to all employees, thus creating a “make the numbers” corporate culture. Thus the employees are incented to do whatever it takes to achieve the goals. Accounting Control Fraud (ACF) behavior was originally defined by George Akerlof, an economist and Nobel Laureate who studied the 1980’s banking and S&L crisis and identified this type of fraud that was epidemic in the 80’s and caused the crisis. His writings with Paul Romer on the issue  first identified these specific fraud dynamics. My Bank Whistleblowers United colleague, William K. Black , published  The Best Way to Rob a Bank Is to Own One , which not only described his experience and observations as a key government prosecutor during the 1980’s crisis but also further analyzed the accounting control fraud dynamics causing that crisis. In the book’s second edition, published in 2013, Bill expanded his analyses showing that bank Accounting Control Fraud behavior was also the key contributing factor to the most recent 2008 financial crisis. In several days of meetings, from a keynote presentation to a panel discussion and an additional webinar streamed to all of the Central Banks, I discussed my experiences and Accounting Control Fraud signs so that all of their bank regulatory supervisory personnel and the key executives present could be sensitive to this type of fraud, better understand it and hopefully prevent it from happening in their own banks. I commend SEACEN for taking time in its conferences to help its Central Banks better understand what happened in US banking such that perhaps they might not make the same “mistakes” we have. I commend them for their ethics in assuring they stay financially stable and truly follow their objectives and mission. This was an experience I will not forget and will use as an example to those in our country who have not held themselves to as high a standard. Thank you SEACEN for the opportunity.

Page Title: My New York Times Interview on Facebook Live… the new technology

Page Keywords:

Page Text: By Richard Bowen My New York Times Interview on Facebook Live… the new technology Update on 5/20/2016: The following article talks about technical problems with the broadcast. Today, the New York Times posted a version without technical problems. You can see it here: https://www.facebook.com/nytimes/videos/10150812143494999/ The executive producer of the New York Times for Facebook Live said “one of the highest levels of engagement yet in both comments and emoticons.” May 11th, I had the distinct pleasure of being part of a new live journalism series, called “The Whistleblowers “, led by Gretchen Morgenson, a Pulitzer Prize winning journalist. It was exciting to be part of this new technology and to be the very first whistleblower to be profiled. Of course, being first has advantages and disadvantages. The interview itself went well, the technology did not. It was out of synch and consequently watching it was painful, with many viewers saying they had to close their eyes. At the end of the interview the NYT producer over Facebook Live, Louise Story, posted that there were significant technical issues. That the NY Times is at the mercy of Facebook to get it fixed is ironic. Still, with hardly any audio and out of synch issues, the good news is by the end of the interview 37,000 people were watching, over 695 comments were made during the interview and 534 shares resulted in 1733 likes. Considering how bad the technology was, it was great that people cared enough about the topic to get involved. You can watch this inaugural episode of The Whistleblowers by  clicking here . Ironically, because of the nature of my comments directed to the failures of the Department of Justice, The SEC, Citi and our government, some viewers commented that it was a conspiracy to keep viewers from watching and commenting. I doubt it… but it still it makes one wonder! I talked about what had occurred at Citi during my watch, my reporting on this in an attempt to stop the fraudulent representations given mortgage backed securities. I mentioned my testimony to the SEC, giving them 1,000 pages of evidence which they buried, and how further they refused to respond to multiple requests under the Freedom of Information Act to release the documents, saying the testimony was “confidential” and “trade secrets,” even though the fraudulent representations given to the purchasers of the mortgage backed securities had been printed off the Internet. I mentioned the Congressional Commission (FCIC) forcing me to change my testimony, that the Department of Justice in spite of their many public promises to do so, have still not held  any of the guilty parties accountable. I also told viewers that the government had full knowledge of the scope of Citi fraud and yet still bailed them out! And I referenced that Citi’s very profitable business model paid significant incentive compensation to all involved which attributed to the greed that caused the decision makers to turn a blind eye and deaf ear to my consistent warnings. And I introduced Bank Whistleblowers United  and the platform of actions which we submitted to presidential candidates which any incoming or present president could act on to restore the rule of law to banking. And, I expressed hope for the future. My hope for the future has grown, in spite of the technical failings of this platform, that so many would tune in and get involved is hopeful and may mean Americans are starting to get angry and voice their concerns. As a result, newly elected officials might pay more attention to their constituents, and do what’s right and put accountabilities in place. One can only hope… Update on 5/20/2016: This article talks about technical problems with the broadcast. Today, the New York Times posted a version without technical problems.
