The ruling class meets at Davos
19 January 2016
On Wednesday, some 2,500 corporate executives, celebrities and government officials will converge at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland to discuss “improving the state of the world” between skiing the alpine slopes and $1,000-a-plate gala dinners.
The heads of Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan Chase and virtually every other major bank and hedge fund will rub shoulders with the government officials nominally in charge of regulating them, including US Treasury Secretary Jacob Lew, Commerce Secretary Penny Pritzker and European Central Bank President Mario Draghi.
