Description

Banks are of central importance for economic growth and financial stability. The banking industry's investment played a key role in enhancing national economic growth in the early 21st century, but the global financial crisis in 2007 revealed its vulnerabilities. In this Very Short Introduction, John Goddard and John Wilson explore the world of banking, describing the role of central banks in national and global economies. They analyze the increasing supervision and regulation imposed on the banking industry and consider proposals for reform. The authors also examine the prospects of a resolution to the closely-related banking and sovereign debt crises. The Very Short Introductions series from Oxford University Press offers hundreds of titles in almost every subject area, providing a concise and accessible introduction to complex topics.
