War on Wealth, The: Fact and Fiction in British Finance Since 1800
ISBN: 9789811270727 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This book addresses the divide that exists between the reality of finance and the image it projects. A functioning financial system is an essential feature of a modern economy, providing it with money, credit, capital, and investments. Conversely, those who provide this essential service are neither respected nor trusted. The causes and consequences of this divide is explored using the British experience from 1800 to the present, drawing upon a mixture of factual evidence and contemporary fiction. Nothing of this scale has been attempted before and this is the product of 50 years of research.

Banks, Exchanges, and Regulators: Global Financial Markets from the 1970s
ISBN: 9780199553730 / Angielski / Twarda / 2021 / 768 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Never have financial markets been subjected to a period of change as rapid and extensive as took place from the 1970s onwards. In the 1970s global financial markets were controlled by governments, compartmentalized along national boundaries, and segregated according to the particular activities they engaged in. This all disintegrated in the decades that followed under the pressure of market forces, global integration, and a revolution in the technology of trading. One product of this transformation was the Global Financial Crisis of 2008, which exposed the fragility of the new structures...
