Black Current is built around continuity. It begins with the verifiable event, maps the relevant relationships and incentives, separates fact from analysis, and keeps following later records that materially change the conclusion.
Research scope
Black Current follows documented concentrations of money, control, access, or institutional authority that create a meaningful public consequence.
Founder and publisher
Ben Horch Black Current MediaBen Horch founded Black Current after building Bors Finance, a financial media business focused on public disclosures, institutional activity, and making complex information useful to ordinary readers. Black Current applies that experience to a wider field of government decisions, corporate power, influence, ownership, and consequence.
Black Current is independently owned and publishes under a written standard for sourcing, attribution, fair response, corrections, and visible revisions.
