Honored Work: “Big Bang: The City Encounters Its Future”
The editorial team that put together the special report included Suzanne Wittebort, Claire Makin, Beth McGoldrick , Fiammetta Rocco, Michael VerMeulen, Peter Koenig, Fredric Dannen, Darrell Delamaide, Isabel Bass and Wendy Cooper. The comprehensive, solidly researched and brilliantly written 10-part report examined the likely impact of the British government’s bold move to deregulate the nation’s securities markets, centered in The City, the financial district of London. Although the report was assembled six months before the “Big Bang” of deregulation took effect, the remarkably perceptive articles foretold in great detail and with uncanny accuracy how the far-reaching developments would change the culture and institutions, the face and pace of The City.
