Fisch B: Die Too Big To Fail-Doktrin

Die Too Big To Fail-Doktrin

Hart Studies in Commercial and Financial Law

This book analyses the legal regimes governing bank crisis management in the EU, UK, and US, discussing the different procedures and tools available as well as the regulatory architecture and the authorities involved. Building on a broad working definition of 'bank crisis management' and referring to several cases, the book explores the techniques and approaches employed by the authorities to deal with troubled banks on both sides of the Atlantic. The legal analysis distinguishes between procedures and tools aimed at liquidating the bank in crisis vis-à-vis those aimed at restructuring. In this regard, attention is paid to the rules allowing for the use of public money in handling banks in trouble as well as to the role that deposit insurance schemes can play. Considerations on the impact on banks of the current crisis provoked by the COVID-19 pandemic are advanced, primarily focusing on the expected surge of non-performing loans as well as on ways to effectively manage these assets. The book approaches these issues from a comparative law perspective, providing law and economics considerations and focusing on strengths and drawbacks of the rules currently in force. The book advances policy considerations as well as reform proposals aiming at enhancing the legal regimes in force, with particular reference to the Consultation promoted in 2021 by the European Commission on the adoption of a new bank crisis management and deposit insurance framework in the Union.

A Transatlantic Perspective

International Bank Crisis Management

America in the World

How the creation of a new banking infrastructure in the early twentieth century established the United States as a global financial power The dominance of US multinational businesses today can seem at first like an inevitable byproduct of the nation’s superpower status. In Dollars and Dominion, Mary Bridges tells a different origin story. She explores the ramshackle beginnings of US financial power overseas, showing that US bankers in the early twentieth century depended on the US government, European know-how, and last-minute improvisation to sustain their work abroad. Bridges focuses on an underappreciated piece of the nation’s financial infrastructure—the overseas branch bank—as a brick-and-mortar foundation for expanding US commercial influence. Bridges explores how bankers sorted their new communities into “us”—potential clients—and “them”—local populations, who often existed on the periphery of the banking world. She argues that US bankers mapped their new communities by creating foreign credit information—and by using a financial asset newly enabled by the Federal Reserve System, the bankers’ acceptance, in the process. In doing so, they constructed a new architecture of US trade finance that relied on long-standing inequalities and hierarchies of privilege. Thus, racialized, class-based, and gendered ideas became baked into the financial infrastructure. Contrary to conventional wisdom, there was nothing inevitable or natural about the rise of US finance capitalism. Bridges shows that US foreign banking was a bootstrapped project that began as a side hustle of Gilded Age tycoons and sustained itself by relying on the power of the US state, copying the example of British foreign bankers, and building alliances with local elites. In this way, US bankers constructed a flexible and durable new infrastructure to support the nation’s growing global power.

Wirtschaft im Wandel der Zeit

Asterix - Pecunia non olet

"This is an eye-opening, must-read blockbuster of a book showing how banks' money and power corrupts Washington and our financial system. Compellingly and insightfully connecting the dots, Gerald Epstein details how the bankers' club is also a literal club, beating down opposition and hardworking Americans, and concludes with a visionary plan for how the system can be changed to benefit all Americans."—Dennis M. Kelleher, President and CEO, Better Markets "Busting the Bankers' Club&nbsp;reminds us that the United States has still not fixed the weaknesses in its banking system to prevent financial meltdowns. Epstein exposes why the fault lines are still there and what we can do to prepare for the next disaster when no amount of regulation is sufficient."—Jennifer Taub, author of&nbsp;Big Dirty Money&nbsp;and host of the podcast Booked Up with Jen Taub "An essential guide to all that's gone so deeply wrong in the US financial sector. 'Roaring finance' has destroyed the economy and upended the lives of working people (and too often distorted the priorities of those who represent them). A 'bankers' club' now threatens democracy by amplifying the power of Wall Street. Epstein offers a concrete road map for bold yet achievable strategies to reclaim finance for the social good."—Ilene Grabel, author of&nbsp;When Things Don’t Fall Apart: Global Financial Governance and Developmental Finance in an Age of Productive Incoherence "Busting the Bankers’ Club&nbsp;is a revealing look behind the curtain of the banking industry’s various crises and failures. Instead of focusing on the policies or practices that lead to such disparate economic outcomes in our economy, Epstein hones in on the network of people, from bankers to lobbyists to academic economists, who tightly control the credit and capital structure that rightfully belongs to the people. Epstein’s account correctly identifies an often-overlooked source of unfairness and also points the way forward through a more democratic and just banking system run for and on behalf of the people. This book is a must-read for students of finance and activists alike, written by a foremost scholar in the field. The book is timely, necessary, and enlightening."—Mehrsa Baradaran, Professor of Law, University of California, Irvine "Gerald Epstein's Busting the Bankers' Club is an indispensable guide to how the financial elite made banking a self-serving and unstable cartel, and how to turn banking back into the servant of the real economy rather than the master."—Robert Kuttner, coeditor of&nbsp;The American Prospect&nbsp;and Professor of Social Policy and Management, Brandeis University "Read this book before the bankers get it banned. In lucid and accessible prose, Epstein tells us what’s wrong with the bankers’ club and what should be done to bust it apart and build finance that works for the rest of us."—Fred Block, Research Professor of Sociology, University of California, Davis

International Money and Finance

From an award-winning financial historian comes the gripping, character-driven story of venture capital and the world it madeInnovations rarely come from "experts." Jeff Bezos was not a bookseller; Elon Musk was not in the auto industry. When it comes to innovation, a legendary venture capitalist told Sebastian Mallaby, the future cannot be predicted, it can only be discovered. Most attempts at discovery fail, but a few succeed at such a scale that they more than make up for everything else. That extreme ratio of success and failure is the power law that drives venture capital, Silicon Valley, the tech sector, and, by extension, the world. Drawing on unprecedented access to the most celebrated venture capitalists of all time, award-winning financial historian Sebastian Mallaby tells the story of this strange tribe of financiers who have funded the world's most successful companies, from Google to SpaceX to Alibaba. With a riveting blend of storytelling and analysis, The Power Law makes sense of the seeming randomness of success in venture capital, an industry that relies, for good and ill, on gut instinct and personality rather than spreadsheets and data. We learn the unvarnished truth about some of the most iconic triumphs and infamous disasters in the history of tech, from the comedy of errors that was the birth of Apple to the venture funding that fostered hubris at WeWork and Uber to the industry's notorious lack of women and ethnic minorities.Now the power law echoes around the world: it has transformed China's digital economy beyond recognition, and London is one of the top cities for venture capital investment. By taking us so deeply into the VCs' game, The Power Law helps us think about our own future through their eyes.

Venture Capital and the Art of Disruption

The Power Law

Es war ein Hochseilakt, den die Schweizer Behörden in vier schicksalshaften Tagen im März 2023 vollbringen mussten: Der grösste Zusammenschluss in der Bankenwelt seit der Finanzkrise.
Was geschah in diesen dramatischen 96 Stunden wirklich?
Hätte die Katastrophe vermieden werden können?
Und wie konnte Credit Suisse in eine derartig epochale Schieflage geraten - ausgerechnet die Bank, die als eine der wenigen globalen Geldhäuser gestärkt aus der Finanzkrise gekommen war?
Gespickt mit vielen bislang unbekannten Informationen, liefert dieses Buch den ersten detaillierten Insider-Bericht über den dramatischen Niedergang des schweizerisch-amerikanischen Geldhauses, das schon immer sehr hart am Wind
segelte – und am Ende unterging.

Warum die Credit Suisse untergehen musste

Zu hart am Wind

A Memoir

Without Prejudice

In a career that has seen him face coup leaders in his native Ivory Coast and lead some of the most prestigious Western financial institutions, Tidjane Thiam has blazed a trail through African and European politics and business.In a career that has seen him face coup leaders in his native Ivory Coast and lead some of the most prestigious Western financial institutions, Tidjane Thiam has blazed a trail through African and European politics and business.After a childhood in tumultuous west and north Africa, Thiam broke barriers in the elitist world of French higher education, becoming one of the first black consultants at McKinsey and Company before entering the Ivorian government. After a coup forced him into exile, he joined the world of finance, where his rise saw him named as CEO of Prudential in London and Credit Suisse in Zurich. Along the way, he was trained and supported by many both in the public and private sector who made his many achievements as a leader possible. However, his rise to prominence as the only African, black and Muslim boss of large Western corporations was also accompanied with disproportionate public and media scrutiny, as well as racism and xenophobia.A blend of autobiography, business, politics, and personal philosophy, his book offers a unique vantage point on corporate and political life in Africa, Europe, the United States and Asia. In a story that spans from his father's politically motivated imprisonment to the business principles that took Thiam to the top of global finance, he shares a personal and professional story that is equal parts inspirational and aspirational.

Bachelorarbeit aus dem Jahr 2024 im Fachbereich BWL - Investition und Finanzierung, Note: 1,0, Universität Paderborn (Fakultät Wirtschaftswissenschaften), Veranstaltung: Finanzwirtschaft, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Die Zielsetzung dieser Arbeit ist es, eine detaillierte Untersuchung der historischen Entwicklungen, der theoretischen Grundlagen und der praktischen Implikationen der TBTF- und TCTF-Doktrinen vorzustellen. 

Es wird erläutert, wo die Ursprünge der Doktrinen liegen, wie diese definiert sind und wie sie sich voneinander abgrenzen lassen. Daraufhin kommt es zu einer detaillierten Ausarbeitung, der Analyse der Auswirkungen sowie Kritiken. Die Thematiken werden anhand von historischen Ereignissen betrachtet und deren Wirksamkeit hinterfragt. Dabei wird analysiert, wie diese Konzepte die Politik, die Regulierung und das Ver-halten der Finanzakteure beeinflusst haben. 

Zudem sollen sie kritisch diskutiert und die Unterschiede in den regulatorischen Ansätzen und politischen Diskussionen mit Fokus auf die USA und die Europäische Union beleuchtet werden. Darüber hinaus sollen die jüngsten Entwicklungen im Bankensektor und deren Folgen für die Doktrinen thematisiert werden.

Corporate scandals are catalysts for change. They constitute a rewarding subject of foundational corporate law research, as legislators often respond to them with far-reaching reforms. This volume introduces the field of corporate law scandal research. It explains its objectives and methods and presents a brief phenomenology of different types of scandals. Ten case studies from the more distant, recent, and most recent past then illustrate how corporate scandals unfold. They originate from Germany, Austria, and Switzerland and range from banking and financial scandals to the collapse of industrial enterprises and large-scale, organized tax fraud. Their names have become firmly embedded in the collective memory of corporate, capital markets, banking, accounting, and business law: Bremer Vulkan, Cum/Ex, Volkswagen and Wirecard, Swissair and Credit Suisse, Creditanstalt 1931, Commerzialbank Mattersburg, and Hypo Alpe-Adria. Each case is examined in detail: Who are the actors publicly accused of wrongdoing? Who brought the actual or alleged misconduct to public attention? How did the media cover the case? What sanctions were imposed by supervisory authorities and courts? How did legislators respond? And have the reforms prompted by these scandals stood the test of time, or have they ultimately proved unsuccessful?
