This book examines the effect of banking on the real economy and
society, focusing on banking supervision as the decisive factor in
steering banking activities and determining the social outcome of
the game of finance. Banking is like a cardiovascular system for
our society. If it functions correctly, it allows the economy to
operate smoothly. On the other hand, if it malfunctions it becomes
a doomsday device. This creates an asymmetry of risks - the
asymmetry between the potential dire consequences and the modest
rewards of accepting those risks. Banking was one of the critical
technological factors enabling the transition from the middle ages
and the creation of modern society. However, while today it
contributes little to economic growth, its malfunction has a
profound and lasting adverse impact. The book explains why, how and
what. Why is it important to keep tight supervision of the banks?
How can banking supervision improve stability, not only of the
financial system but also of the whole human society? What went
wrong with the regulation in the past?
