A book on financial crisis written by an expert in the field, a professional economist from the Bank for International Settlements in Basel, a financial stability expert at the European Stability Mechanism in Luxembourg, and an adviser on Financial System Governance to a government, will definitely get the attention of readers. The author’s portfolio was powerful enough to lure me into picking up this book and I can say that it wasn’t overstated and the book wasn’t disappointing.
In clear and powerful, yet accessible prose, Srichander Ramaswamy unveils the secrets behind the financial crisis to readers, indicating the loopholes in regulatory reforms and the financial system architecture. It is common for readers to put the blame on bankers, central bankers, hedge funds, mortgage originators, and other financial agencies without understanding the underlying causes of the crisis. Financial Crisis and Regulatory Reforms: The Basel Story to Taxpayers offers a simplified explanation of the causes of the financial crisis, the regulatory reforms resulting from the crisis, and how they respond to the weaknesses that have necessitated the crisis.
Financial Crisis and Regulatory Reforms: The Basel Story to Taxpayers by Srichander Ramaswamy is a compelling financial document that readers, bankers, investors, and anyone who wants to understand the flaws in the financial system architecture that have brought about the financial crisis will want to read. The language is devoid of the jargon peculiar to the financial world. The author does a wonderful job in helping readers understand why the financial markets are the way they are, identifies key indicators in the market, and offers insights on the challenges that lie ahead. It’s a very informative and engaging read.
