Descrizione

“The book provides a sharp analysis of what went wrong with Finance and led to the great crisis, and shows the ways through which Finance can get its credibility back. Regulation and high ethical standards are not enough!” Lorenzo Bini Smaghi, Chairman of Société Générale and Italgas spa, former member of the Executive Board of the European Central Bank “In his provocative and insightful new book Barucci appeals to readers with a social conscience, re-interpreting the facts and raising important new questions about the value of finance that were surfaced by the last financial crisis”. Darrel Duffie, Dean Witter Distinguished Professor of Finance, Stanford University “The 2008 Global Financial Crisis was one of the most important events in our lifetime. In his book Emilio Barucci examines the legacy of those events and blends astute financial analysis with searching philosophical and moral questions. The result is a thought-provoking and compelling work that gives us licence to question the future role of our financial system”. Mark Wilson, Former CEO of Aviva Plc and of AIA, non-executive director of Black Rock
