Book description
'Whoever said you can't fool an honest man wasn't one'
The banks are facing a crisis, and this time it's too serious
even for the old boys' club to sort it out - this time, they've sunk
to government intervention. But opening the vaults to public scrutiny
brings a whole host of problems for those at the top: people want to
know where the money's gone, they want loans, reasonable interest
rates and much much worse - accountability. The fortress of high
finance is crumbling, and it may be time for a change of management -
before it's too late.
