Rhodes And His Banker

Empire, Wealth And The Coming Of Union

Private Credit and the Repricing of Capital Markets

Portfolio Construction under Elevated Inflation and Sovereign Debt Crisis

Independent, inflation-targeting central banks were supposed to deliver stable prices, financial stability and lasting prosperity. Instead, they have presided over financial crises, stagnant growth, rising inequality and the return of inflation. Yet policy makers and politicians have proved remarkably reluctant to challenge the orthodoxy. Why has this model proved so resilient-and what should replace it? In The Gods That Failed, economist Josh Ryan-Collins argues that today's macroeconomic policy framework rests on five powerful myths that have shaped economic thinking since the 1980s. From the "natural" rate of interest and the management of inflation expectations to efficient financial markets and the taboos surrounding fiscal dominance and credit policy, these ideas continue to constrain policymakers even as the evidence against them becomes overwhelming. Blending colourful economic history, cutting-edge research and vivid real-world examples, Ryan-Collins opens-up the often opaque and technocratic world of monetary and financial policy for a wide readership and illustrates its fundamental flaws. At a time of repeated economic and financial shocks, ecological breakdown and geopolitical instability, The Gods That Failed argues that rebuilding our economies will require a wholesale rethinking of how central banks, governments and financial institutions work together to manage money, credit and the macroeconomy.

Palgrave Macmillan Studies in Banking and Financial Institutions

This book provides a rigorous examination of the green bond market and its interaction with the banking sector. Over the past decade, green bonds have grown rapidly and become a central instrument in sustainable finance. Despite this expansion, existing research remains fragmented across regulatory discussions, descriptive market analyses, and empirical pricing studies. Moreover, limited attention has been devoted to banks, even though they represent a major issuer category and play a structurally different role from that of corporate and sovereign issuers. The book first describes the institutional evolution of the green bond market, clarifying the role of market-based standards, reporting frameworks, and external review mechanisms. It then maps the market's structure, examining issuance trends, issuer composition, financial characteristics, and use-of-proceeds patterns. A dedicated chapter investigates the pricing of bank-issued green bonds, assessing whether environmental labelling is associated with measurable yield differentials within the banking sector. Finally, the analysis extends to the role of banks in sustainable finance, discussing green bond funding, sustainable lending, regulatory metrics such as the Green Asset Ratio, and climate-related supervisory frameworks. By combining regulatory analysis, bond-level evidence, and an institutional perspective, the book shows how green bonds operate within capital markets and how banks engage with them. It will be of interest to scholars in banking and sustainable finance, graduate students in finance and economics, and practitioners and policymakers concerned with green capital markets.

Market Structure, Pricing, and Regulation in Sustainable Finance

The Green Bond Market and the Banking Sector

A unified framework for understanding monetary policy, including recent unprecedented interventions by central banks Over the past two decades, monetary policy has been deployed in unprecedented ways, as central banks attempted to mitigate the adverse consequences of the 2007-2008 financial crisis, the COVID-19 global lockdown, and recent inflationary surges. In Monetary Economics and Policy, Pierpaolo Benigno offers a new way to understand the potency and effectiveness of monetary policy, presenting a unified modeling framework to analyze policy challenges posed by both paper and digital currency systems. He investigates current theoretical and policy controversies, drawing connections with historical themes in monetary economics. Benigno examines how central banks control the value of their currency amid competition from cryptocurrencies and private money-like securities; discusses the desirability of inflation targeting for macroeconomic stabilization; and explores theoretical grounds for the unconventional monetary policies seen in the recent period of zero nominal interest rates, including forward guidance, quantitative and credit easing, and helicopter money. He accompanies his analysis with an innovative visual representation of the New Keynesian model and inflation-targeting policies. Benigno's novel framework also allows the study of monetary policy normalization through quantitative tightening toward what has become the "new normal." He discusses the optimal provision of liquidity and the different roles of the government and financial intermediaries. Finally, he recounts historical controversies regarding the inflation-unemployment trade-off to understand the 2020s inflationary surge and delves into the causes and dynamics of hyperinflations, tracing them to the subtle, ambiguous linkages between monetary and fiscal policy and weak balance-sheet conditions for the central bank.

Studies in Private International Law

This groundbreaking book offers an in-depth exploration of the complex and evolving landscape of the recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments across Africa. Covering more than 26 jurisdictions, it spans a remarkable diversity of linguistic traditions (including English, French, Arabic, and Portuguese), religious contexts (such as Christian-majority and Muslim-majority countries), and legal systems (ranging from common law and civil law to mixed jurisdictions). As the first comprehensive study of its kind, the book examines national procedures, legal regimes, and institutional frameworks, combining theoretical insights with practical analysis. It sheds light on the multifaceted challenges that arise in cross-border civil and commercial litigation and reflects on the prospects for legal harmonization and reform within the continent. Drawing on the most up-to-date case law and legislative developments, both domestic and regional, the book offers a unique and timely contribution to understanding the mechanisms-current and emerging-that govern the movement of judgments across African borders. A practical guide and indispensable reference for practitioners, academics, judges, students, and policy makers alike, this invaluable book provides a comprehensive overview of the current state of foreign judgments recognition and enforcement in Africa, with all its intricacies and complexities.

Springer Texts in Business and Economics

After having considered the core activities of providing loans and accepting deposits in the first volume, the second volume of this textbook analyses banks in its wider economic context, that is in relationship with each other and other competitors and stakeholders. After studying the competition between banks and how this affects bank behaviour, this volume assesses how banks are managed internally; rather than taking the balance sheet of banks as given, it explores how an optimal balance sheet might look like, how employees are remunerated and how they are acting when representing the bank. The important topic of how bank failures can spread, systemic risk, is also considered, alongside an evaluation of the effectiveness of banking regulation. The final part considers the impact that banks have on the wider economy and how their decisions can affect macroeconomic outcomes.

Commercial Banking in Context

Theoretical Foundations of Commercial Banking - Vol.2

Routledge Advanced Texts in Economics and Finance

Money and banking sit at the centre of every major economic question of our time, from inflation and financial crises to inequality and the rise of digital currencies, yet most textbooks still teach them through a single framework as if there were only one correct way to understand what money is and how banks work.The Economics of Money and Banking takes a different approach. It introduces students to the major competing theories of money, such as commodity theory, chartalism, credit theory, and post-Keynesian endogenous money, and shows how each illuminates different aspects of the modern financial system. It grounds every theoretical idea in real institutions, historical episodes and policy debates, from the 2008 crisis and the eurozone sovereign debt crisis to the 2023 banking turmoil and the 2021-2024 inflation surge. It goes further than any comparable text into territory that matters today but is largely absent from existing textbooks: the distributional consequences of monetary policy and the digital transformation of money through central bank digital currencies, stablecoins and artificial intelligence.Written for undergraduate and graduate students, this book combines accessibility with theoretical rigour, equipping the next generation of economists, bankers and policymakers to think critically about money.

Model Risk Management for Large Language Models in Financial Services

AI and quantum computing are two disruptive forces about to push financial services and the banking industry over the edge, demanding an unprecedented transformation. They are not fleeting trends but fundamental disruptors that will reshape the core of banking and finance. Authored by a senior Swiss banking technology executive, this practical guide helps board members and senior leaders turn disruption into a disciplined strategic agenda. It offers a rare insider perspective and a roadmap for navigating these seismic shifts. Bridging the gap between technological innovation and practical application, this book equips leaders with the tools to address the challenges and opportunities posed by AI and quantum computing. It features a thorough review of the latest business opportunities and threats associated with these technologies, alongside foresight-based strategic decision frameworks to guide prioritisation. Real-world case studies and an online companion with 125 AI use cases tailored for banks provide actionable insights. It also introduces an original AI Adoption Maturity Model and a Hybrid Enterprise Reference Architecture to ensure safe integration of internal systems with external frontier models. Finally, it provides two detailed multi-year roadmaps, offering a clear path to harness AI's potential and to prepare for a post-quantum future through crypto agility.Rather than offering abstract predictions or generic solutions, this book presents financial-services leaders with the frameworks, choices, and implementation path they need to act with confidence at a moment when waiting is no longer an option.
