Why Wall Street Matters

Why Wall Street Matters

If you have a credit card, a car loan or any number of other financial products, Wall Street has an impact on your life. In this podcast, author and former investment banker William D. Cohan explains "Why Wall Street Matters" to just about everyone. That's also the title of his new book, which provides a counterargument to the widespread vilification of Wall Street in the national media and on Capitol Hill.

Listen and learn:

  • How Wall Street came to be viewed as an irredeemable villain
  • Why it's so important to know the truth about this critical engine of our economy
  • What can be done to restore confidence in our financial institutions

Your host, Matt Miller, is the policy and communications advisor for Capital Group. An author and former Washington Post columnist, Matt was previously co-host of the public radio program Left, Right & Center.
