À propos de cette écoute
The financial crisis that peaked in the United States during the fall of 2008 is an excellent case study of what can go wrong with leadership and corporate governance - in business, financial ethics, government regulation directed both at the firm level and at that of the financial system itself, and legal accountability for the culprits.
The collection begins with a series of essays on Lehman Brothers, with particular attention to its last CEO, Richard Fuld. Given the fraud surrounding sub-prime mortgage bonds at numerous banks, the second part of the collection looks at why legal accountability was so elusive in the United States. Weaknesses in the financial regulation, with particular attention to whether agencies had been captured by their respective regulated firms, comprises the third part. The fourth part examines the culpability of the Federal Reserve Bank, which had perhaps been too close to its regulated banks to anticipate the crisis.
The audiobook concludes with essays on why business ethics had been so very weak. The careful listener will take from the collection a sense that the financial system remained vulnerable even after government attempts to reduce the systemic risks of a big bank going under.
