University of South Carolina School of Law's Family & Small Business Program Presents "Go Direct: Our choices matter in today's middleman economy"

Professor Kathryn Judge has agreed to be the Family and Small Business Program’s inaugural speaker. Her presentation, “Go Direct: Our Choices Matter in Today’s Middleman Economy,” will be delivered at 6:00 p.m. in the law school’s Karen Williams Courtroom with a reception to follow. 
  
Professor Judge is the Harvey J. Goldschmid Professor of Law and Vice Dean for Intellectual Life at Columbia Law School. She is an expert on banking, financial innovation, financial crises, and regulatory architecture. In her recent book Direct: The Rise of the Middleman Economy and the Power of Going to the Source, she uses insights she gained from years of studying financial intermediation to explain broader shifts in the structure of the economy, the increasing power of intermediaries across numerous domains, and how these changes have contributed to new sources of fragility and undermined accountability. 

No registration is required to attend.
