Naked Capitalism is a liberal American financial news and analysis group blog.[1][2] Susan Webber, the principal of Aurora Advisors Incorporated, a management-consulting firm based in New York City, launched the site in late 2006, using the pen name Yves Smith.[3] She focused on finance and economic news and analysis, with an emphasis on legal and ethical issues of the banking industry and the mortgage foreclosure process, the worldwide effects of the 2007–2008 financial crisis, the Great Recession, and its aftermath. Since 2020, the site has also provided a special, continuing coverage of the COVID-19 pandemic. The site became one of the most highly frequented financial blogs on the Internet[4] and has published a number of noted exposés since.
