Banks of all sorts are troubled institutions. The cost of public
bail-outs associated with the subprime crisis in the United States
alone may be as high as $2 trillion. What is the problem with
banks? Why do they seem to be at the center of economic and
financial turmoil down through the ages? In this provocative and
timely book, Rethel and Sinclair seek answers to these questions,
arguing that banks suffer from perennial problems, and that
developments in the financial markets and government in recent
decades have simply exacerbated these issues.
The Problem With Banks examines banking activity in America, Asia,
and Europe, and how specific historical circumstances have
transformed banks' behavior and attitude to risk. While many see
government as a constraint on banks, Rethel and Sinclair argue that
what governments do in terms of regulation shapes banks and their
motivations, as can be seen in the shortcomings of current reform
proposals. Instead, more far-reaching, alternative ways of
regulating and shaping banks are needed.
A concise, essential overview of a pressing global issue.
