WANTED: companies to tell the Central Bank what people are saying about it on social media. Analysis of "unfavourable or hostile" conversations required.

The Central Bank is seeking firms to monitor social media sites and track conversations about finance matters on sites including Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, boards.ie and askaboutmoney.ie.

Irrelevant chatter must be filtered out so AH will probably be avoided.

Let them monitor askaboutmoney...the advice that was being given out on there about investments,buying property abroad and bank shares might open thier eyes to the stupidity of some people in this country.

Right so, bank monitor sees something written about them on Boards they don't like and then a letter/email gets fired off to Dav and the lads saying 'take this down' and the lads decide if it should be taken down or the bank monitor gets told to take a hike. Doesn't this already happen with most organisations/business already?

Wouldn't it be good if the government monitored boards for opinions.

They want to monitor unfavorable conversations about financial services providers,products and services.

Seems fair.Don't about the benefit though.
Certainly wouldn't fancy the job.

Looks like the head of the central bank has been having a few weeks heavy smoking cannabis if you ask me. Partially paranoid.

Its funny how so many companies are hiring people just to sit on facebook and boards all day. It must be an absolute dream job to have for some. Though it wouldnt be my cupan tae at all

I'm sure all news media monitor boards as well as RTE. Remember the woman that was selling her knickers online and claiming JSA that got on the news fairly quickly, so they sure as hell have their nose stuck to the boards monitor all day i'm sure.

I'm guessing the guys in the white coats.

Hey, central bank, why did you refuse to give Jonathan Sugarman immunity when he went to you, to report a massive breach of regulations (it seems that, unless you're a top bank executive, it can be quite hard to get immunity...) - instead telling him that if he revealed any wrongdoing, he would be reported to the police?

What Sugarman’s story reveals above all is how no one in power, whether that be financial, political or media power, wants any questions asked or truths exposed. Sugarman has been ignored by everyone in the Irish establishment: his bank, the banks regulator, all the Irish political parties, all the newspapers and I was there when he told his story to one of Ireland’s top TV journalists only to never hear from him again.

Sugarman was the risk manager who resigned from Unicredit when his warnings to senior management, that the bank was routinely failing to hold enough capital to protect depositors from a bank run, were being ignored.

Irish law says clearly a breach of the minimum holdings of even 1% must be notified to the regulator immediately. He was finding UniCredit being routinely 19% short. When he asked an independent company to check his figures they told him the breaches were as high as 40%. This means the bank was short billions. Such a shortfall means if there was run on the bank it would not have a hope of surviving.

Sugarman was ignored and told to stop complaining. He resigned.

A month later Northern Rock collapsed when a run on the bank exhausted its cash reserves. A year later the Irish banks collapsed.

You might have thought the Irish Bank regulator would want to know what Sugarman had to say. You’d be wrong. The Irish regulator has gone out of his way to ignore him. I have been privy to all the emails and correspondence and it is a shameful and tawdry story of obfuscation, lying and threats. Meetings where he was told he could come and tell the regulator what he knew, but that if he revealed any wrong doing by the bank that occurred during the time he was there, the regulator would have to report him to the police. Despite the fact he had been the one trying to raise the alarm

Ya though, I'm sure there are interested groups that do a lot more than merely monitor boards - if they're willing to pay people to read, why not to post?

Handy job for some lad he gets paid to go on boards all day and it is official unlike the rest of us who just pretend to work and go on boards all day anyway

I wouldn't mind applying. Pretty much sit around all day on boards too, so might as well get paid for doing it.

They can't monitor s**t if we use code words. From now on the we refer to the central bank as "bogey-lol two-zero", Don't let this top secret information slip
