Thats a good shout I'd forgotten this one, White Star also has a very large presence on the Worldline trading in advanced computer and other tech (TL9).

So White Star has ways of infiltrating high risk worlds. (Bonaparte-4, Yrth)

Or that was a typo, and it's supposed to be 2025...
No it mentions the crash in 2032, a further 2 years have passed so canon looks like to have progressed to mid 2030's.
