Larry Doyle has worked on and around Wall Street for the last 30 years. From First Boston to Bear Stearns and ultimately JP Morgan Chase, Doyle engaged in the trading, selling, and managing of a wide spectrum of mortgage-related assets. He now manages his own investment advisory practice in Connecticut, and writes extensively on the markets, economy, Wall Street, and Washington at his blog Sense on Cents.
Profiled in a Dow Jones commentary, Doyle stated, "The country needs Wall Street. It needs a flow of capital and credit, but when politicians get paid off, you end up with a regulatory system that protects the industry rather than investors.
"I'm just trying to help people understand what's going on here," he said. "If that's critical of the industry, well, let's put it this way, there's been a lot to write about."
Doyle has received wide acclaim for his tireless efforts to expose shortcomings and injustices stemming from an ineffectual -- if not corruptible -- financial regulatory system that is the result of egregious payoffs and a well trafficked revolving door between Wall Street and Washington.
