Описание: -Piketty unleashed on real-time economics is a revelation.- -- Guardian
Thomas Piketty's work has proved that unfettered markets lead to increasing inequality. Without meaningful regulation, capitalist economies will concentrate wealth in an ever smaller number of hands. For years, this critical challenge to democracy has been the focus of Piketty's monthly newspaper columns, which pierce the surface of current events to reveal the economic forces underneath. Why Save the Bankers? brings together selected columns from the period bookended by the September 2008 collapse of Lehman Brothers and the terrorist attacks in Paris in November 2015. In crystalline prose, Piketty examines a wide range of topics, and along the way he decodes the European Union's economic troubles, weighs in on oligarchy in the United States, wonders whether debts actually need to be paid back, and discovers surprising lessons about inequality by examining the career of Steve Jobs. Coursing with insight and flashes of wit, these brief essays offer a view of recent history through the eyes of one of the most influential economic thinkers of our time. -Anyone with an interest in politics, monetary policy, or international diplomacy will get a kick out of Piketty's clear discussion.- -- Shelf Awareness
-If you have been influenced by Piketty's landmark work on inequality, make sure to read this next.- -- Naomi Klein, author of The Shock Doctrine and This Changes Everything

Описание:
So, you want to be an investment banker, huh? Well, you're looking in the right place. This is the ONLY book on the market that guides you right through the process from where and when to apply, to the most likely interview questions and even how to impress your boss from day one ensuring you keep that job.
Job applications to investment banks have shot up due to all the media attention that the industry has received but there are fewer jobs available:
The unemployment rate for 16- to 24-year-olds has risen sharply in the current recession, from 15% in 2008 to 19% in 2009 and then to 20% in 2010 (poverty.org.uk).
Just 54% of Americans aged 18 to 24 currently have jobs. That's the lowest employment rate for this age group since the government began keeping track in 1948. (Pew Research Center)
With the top investment banks now combing the world over to find the very best person for the job, you need to stay a step ahead. To help you succeed, To Become an Investment Banker gives you all the information you need to have at your fingertips as well as extra advice to ensure you stand out from the crowd.
Much of the information is presented in a bullet point format ensuring clarity and absolute ease of access. In addition, the laid-back, chatty tone of this semi-autobiographical book makes it an enjoyable read as well as an essential guide.
Heather Katsonga-Woodward started her investment banking journey in 2004 with an internship at Goldman Sachs. Since then, she has picked up a mass of useful tips that helped her survive, even during the whirlwinds of the 2007-2009 credit crunch. With input from four other investment bankers, To Become an Investment Banker encompasses 25 years of collective banking expertise.
This book is the perfect starting point if your sights are set on working in any major financial center.

Описание: On 28 September 2018, after announcing that he was going to step down as the managing director of YES Bank, Rana Kapoor had claimed: Diamonds are forever. My promoter shares of YES Bank are invaluable to me. However, in a span of just fourteen months, Kapoor did a complete U-turn. He sold his entire stake in the bank, even as the shares continued to get hammered by investors. Rana Kapoor and Ashok Kapur had founded YES Bank in 2004. On 5 March 2020, the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) took control of it in an attempt to avoid the collapse of the bank, which had an excessive amount of bad loans. . What led to one of the biggest banking failures in Indian history? Who is Rana Kapoor and, more importantly, what role did he play in the rise and fall of YES Bank?. Furquan Moharkan takes you right to the start of Rana Kapoors career as a banker, charting his meteoric rise, his mercurial personality, the lavish lifestyle and the unravelling of it all. Kapoors story runs parallel with that of the fourth largest private bank in India. In what feels like a story straight from a financial thriller, The Banker Who Crushed His Diamonds uncovers the rot deep within YES Banks glittering success story. It serves as much as a cautionary tale as it exposes the chink in Indias armour against financial chaos.

Описание:
We have been taught that when we spend ONE DOLLAR, we get one use out of it. It buys food. It pays a bill. But once it leaves your hands, it's gone. ITS USE IS SPENT
Today more people are worried about their retirement than ever before. Part of the fault is from being told you must give up the use of your money when you are young, so you can have it later. It can't be touched, and you are told this is good advice.
What you are not told about is the bigger issue: The average Canadian pays out $0.34 of every dollar earned as an interest expense, consuming more of their income than anything else
What if those dollars could flow back to you?
This book will teach you how your ONE DOLLAR can have multiple uses - simply by moving it through an asset that you own and control. Like your smart phone today that serves multiple purposes - your daily information source, your email, your GPS, your camera, your iPod, and practically your everything else - so your dollars must serve multiple purposes.
"It sounds too good to be true. Why doesn't everyone do this? Why haven't I heard this before?," these are always the first reactions I hear. "How is this possible? How can my money compound while using it to pay down my mortgage faster? WHY IS TAKING A LOAN BETTER THAN PAYING CASH?" The answers will surprise you.
Most of us have been taught since we were kids growing up that we should avoid debt and pay cash as much as possible. But have you ever stopped to consider the financial impact of paying cash? When you pay cash, you lose the interest that money could have earned for you. You are giving up what Albert Einstein is credited with saying, the "eighth wonder of the world," compound interest.
But what if you could somehow earn interest on all the money you use when paying cash - for the rest of your life? How would that advance your wealth creating potential? What if there was a way you could buy the things you want and still earn interest on the money you used, and still have control over it?
Will Moran, MA, HBA, CLU, is the founder and owner of Moran Financial Inc. and Wealth Economics. Most Canadians are growing tired of traditional planning models that are costing them way too much, restricting them way too much, and causing them to lose control of their money. Will challenges the status quo, to cultivate a mindset where one dollar can do many jobs, where there is abundance as opposed to scarcity, and where, in the end, you discover a whole new financial world that works for you rather than against you.
In December 1968, Pasquale "Pat" Scida, age 24, secured an entry level position on Wall Street. His memoir, "Walworth Street to Wall Street" Back Office Clerk to Investment Banker, tracks his journey from clerk to VP and Unit Investment Trust Syndicate Manager, underwriting more than $3 Billion of Fixed Income Securities annually.
"Walworth Streetto Wall Street" is the story of a young man from one of Brooklyn's Italian American ghettos who battled through real and imagined obstacles to success on Wall Street. Natural talent, good mentoring, and hard work ultimately land him at the epicenter of a massive movement of capital from the nation's banks to its brokerage firms, resulting from the runaway inflation and historically high interest rates of the late seventies-early eighties.
More than Mr. Scida's personal story "Walworth Street (where the author lived in Brooklyn) to Wall Street" is a series of essays and reflections on the day to day Wall Street experience. From the back office where dozens of menial tasks keep firms running smoothly to the trading floors and the executive suite, we experience Wall Street at its ground floor working level; the day to day mountain of work, the break neck pace and endless decision making, the takeovers, mergers and ruthless politics are all brought forth in the authors engaging style.
Throughout the work the author deciphers Wall Street puzzles. Pricing in the New Issue and Secondary Bond Markets, interest rate determination, brokerage firm profitability and product development among others are rendered in plain language.
If you like Wall Street you're going to love "Walworth Street to Wall Street."
Mr. Scida was SVP and Director of Municipal Bond Marketing and Sales at Morgan Stanley Dean Witter when he retired in 2001.
