Today we are talking with one of the top investigative reporters in the financial world — Jesse Drucker. Jesse is an award-winning investigative reporter for the New York Times Business section. He has also worked for both the Wall Street Journal and Bloomberg News. He won a pair of awards in 2011 from the Society of American Business Editors and Writers for articles he wrote on how U.S. multinationals shift profits to tax havens. Investigative reporters are part of the oversight ecosystem by raising concerning issues to light, and leveraging their platform to inform the general public and to provide Congress with essential information which might lead to a Congressional investigation. I hope you enjoy our conversation.
