The Third Quarter issue of the Cayman Financial Review is now available on the web: http://www.compasscayman.com/cfr/.  I am on the Editorial Board and have two articles in this issue that might interest you.  The first discusses the continued decline of U.S. world leadership exemplified in the case of the new Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank located in China:  http://www.compasscayman.com/cfr/2015/08/19/US-leadership-and-the-Asian-Infrastructure-Investment-Bank/
 
The second is the final installment of my Kabul Bank scandal series.  The failure of Kabul Bank in Afghanistan was probably the biggest bank failure and fraud in history (on a per capital basis).  As this final article looks at some of the legal issues and developments in recovering stolen assets held abroad and Afghanistan’s uneven struggle to strengthen its criminal justice system, Gary Gegenheimer, a lawyer who also worked in Afghanistan, joined me to write this third installment:  http://www.compasscayman.com/cfr/2015/08/19/The-Kabulbank-scandal–Part-III/
