Anthony Malakian, US editor of Waters, and James Rundle, news editor of Waters, record a weekly podcast touching on the biggest stories in financial technology.

This week, Anthony and James delve into regtech and also take a look at how employee privacy may be diminishing due to new cognitive technologies being used in surveillance. They next turn their attention to clearinghouses in London and how new EU rules could force them to relocate to the Eurozone. Finally, they talk about how Anthony was incredibly wrong in saying that a Floyd Mayweather-Conor McGregor fight would never happen.
