Cherise Lloyd.
Financial Content Strategist & Podcast Host
Eleven years assessing bank credit risk at the Federal Reserve and Macquarie Capital. Now I research, write, and host stories about how financial disasters actually happen — for Overleveraged, Overconfident, for finance and fintech brands, and for anyone who needs complex money problems explained by someone who's read the 10-K.
I spent over a decade inside bank credit risk: first as a state bank examiner assigning CAMELS ratings, then at the Federal Reserve monitoring institutional access to the Discount Window and collateral through the 2008 crisis, then at Macquarie Capital flagging credit deterioration across a 160-position loan portfolio.
I’m also a former Certified Fraud Examiner. Which means when I’m researching a financial scandal, I know what the warning signs looked like from the inside, because spotting them used to be my job.
I bring that background to financial content: podcast research and hosting, newsletters, LinkedIn series, and marketing for finance and fintech companies that need someone who can actually read the filing, not just summarize the press release.
