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:
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.

Описание: A top-notch resource for anyone who wants to break into the demanding world of investment banking For undergraduates and MBA students, this book offers the perfect preparation for the demanding and rigorous investment banking recruitment process.
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.

Описание: Martin H?lsen explores individual behavioral trustworthiness of and within the banking industry in Germany based on an economic experiment combined with psychological instruments. He finds that bankers have a reputation for being untrustworthy. However, his evidence also shows that the true story of banker trustworthiness is more complex: In particular, he explores differences between employees of commercial banks on the one hand and employees of savings and cooperative banks on the other.
Описание: Argues that the root cause of the financial crisis is the ambition to handle risk as a well-defined commodity that can be traded in the market. The book provides an interpretation of the crisis going beyond simple reconstructions. Finance cannot be rescued by simply referring to ethics or limiting the remuneration of managers.

Priests of Prosperity explores the unsung revolutionary campaign to transform postcommunist central banks from command-economy cash cows into Western-style monetary guardians. Juliet Johnson conducted more than 160 interviews in seventeen countries with central bankers, international assistance providers, policymakers, and private-sector finance professionals over the course of fifteen years. She argues that a powerful transnational central banking community concentrated in Western Europe and North America integrated postcommunist central bankers into its network, shaped their ideas about the role of central banks, and helped them develop modern tools of central banking.
Johnson’s detailed comparative studies of central bank development in Hungary, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Russia, and Kyrgyzstan take readers from the birth of the campaign in the late 1980s to the challenges faced by central bankers after the global financial crisis. As the comfortable certainties of the past collapse around them, today’s central bankers in the postcommunist world and beyond find themselves torn between allegiance to their transnational community and its principles on the one hand and their increasingly complex and politicized national roles on the other. Priests of Prosperity will appeal to a diverse audience of scholars in political science, finance, economics, geography, and sociology as well as to central bankers and other policymakers interested in the future of international finance, global governance, and economic development.
