Dan Wilchins will be leaving us next month to join Bloomberg as an editor overseeing their daily credit column. Dan joined Reuters in 2001 as a reporter covering mortgages and asset-backed securities, a beat that served him well when he moved over to the US banking team just before the financial crisis. He headed the banking team during and after the crisis, breaking stories about collapsing bond insurers, bank bailouts, and new regulations to rein in the financial system.
He became a chartered financial analyst in 2008 and flirted with the idea of switching to Wall Street before deciding that being a reporter was a lot more fun. We’ll miss Dan’s deft editing, and his extensive knowledge about banking, the bond markets, and 1980’s pop music. We wish him all the best for the future.
Wilchins has been at Reuters since 2001. He was deputy financial services editor.
