It is almost universally agreed that banks are of central
importance for economic growth, the efficient allocation of
capital, financial stability, and the competitiveness and
development of manufacturing and service sectors. And, at least in
recent decades, it has also widely been believed that
high-performing banks, supported by state-of-the-art
risk-management capabilities, and light-touch, market-based
regulation would allow plentiful finance for investment, leading to
economic growth. However, since 2007, as the global financial
system has endured extreme turbulence-with banks suffering
stomach-churning losses, necessitating unbelievable bailouts by
national governments-this orthodoxy has been roundly challenged.
Academics and policymakers alike have been forced fundamentally to
re-examine the scale, scope, governance, performance, as well as
the safety and soundness, of financial institutions. The necessity
for such urgent reassessments underscores the timeliness of this
new Major Work collection from Routledge. It meets the need for an
authoritative reference work to map the existing scholarly corpus,
and to make sense of the continuing explosion in research output.
Edited by John O. S. Wilson, a leading scholar, Banking is a
five-volume collection which brings together the very best
foundational and cutting-edge contributions to the field. The
collection is divided into four principal parts. Part 1 is
dedicated to 'The Theory and Business of Banking'. The second part
deals with 'The Industrial Organization of Banking', while Part 3
explores 'Deregulation, Regulation, Supervision, and Crises'. The
final part of the collection brings together the best scholarship
and other useful materials on 'Banks and the Macro economy'. The
collection is fully indexed. It also includes comprehensive
introductions and overviews to each principal part, newly written
by the editor, which place the material in its intellectual and
historical context. It is an essential work of reference and is
destined to be valued by users as a vital one-stop research
resource.
