E-Commerce and Democracy
There is no more urgent issue than that of creating jobs and providing prosperity to everyone in the world. As I have passionately advocated, this is an exercise the results of which can be empirically measured. The report card of corporations are their quarterly and annual financial statements. The report cards of countries are the psychological valuation of their currencies. Such cases as Sports Authority, in the U.S., point to the importance of not loading up on debt as either a corporate or national growth solution.

Today’s Alternative = Tomorrow’s Mainstream

So, now I’m two months into my role at Platform Black and enjoying every minute of being part of a vibrant and record breaking ‘alternative’ finance team. However, it has occurred to me again and again that the term ‘alternative’ is something that doesn’t sit well, as it often carries negative connotations which are misleading and inaccurate. The emergence of platforms such as Platform Black has given rise to a complementary source of finance that can sit comfortably alongside other mainstream sources.
