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.

AN INSTANT&nbsp;NEW YORK TIMES&nbsp;BESTSELLER! Audiobook narrated by Jennie Garth Beloved actress, designer, and entrepreneur Jennie Garth opens up in this fiercely honest book about pursuing happiness, aging with confidence, and learning to love and prioritize yourself. Jennie Garth is best known for playing the iconic role of Kelly Taylor in the hit television series “Beverly Hills, 90210.” Now in her 50s, she invites readers into the real story of growing up on screen, facing Hollywood’s impossible beauty standards, and losing—and finding—herself through heartbreak, loss, and the challenge of motherhood. She shares the raw truths of the moments that broke her open and shows the resilience it takes to walk through grief and begin again. Jennie writes with warmth and candor about learning to quiet the voice that says “not enough,” rediscovering her strength after loss, and daring to take up space, speak her truth, and want more. She opens up about the unglamorous, deeply human moments and finally letting go of the need for perfection and other people’s approval. Through personal stories, practical advice, and the wisdom earned through her own hard lessons, Jennie lights a path back to self-love and clarity.&nbsp;I Choose Me&nbsp;is for anyone who’s ever felt lost in their roles, struggling to give themselves permission to ask, “What do I want now?” It’s an invitation to honor your own journey, embrace self-care, and believe with compassion that choosing yourself is the bravest, kindest thing you can do. "An inspiring roadmap&nbsp;to navigating life's challenges with grace, grit, and a refusal to settle for anything less than your worth." –Chelsea&nbsp;Handler,&nbsp;comedian and #1 bestselling author&nbsp;

The Wolf of Investing

A challenge to incentivization as a dominant framework for understanding and governing people From corporate management and consumer behavior to public health and climate policy, incentives are widely treated as a neutral and effective way to shape how people act. In this book, Guus Dix shows that incentives are not simple policy nudges; they lull us into a passive understanding of ourselves as being merely responsive to changes others make to our environment. They foster a politics of incremental tweaks to a socially and ecologically destructive economic system that we are expected to accept without question. Dix argues that it is time to challenge the reign of incentives in contemporary science and public life. Dix traces the evolution of the incentive, from the engineering of performance charts and rewards for factory workers to combating gridlock at Britain’s National Health Service. He describes the function of incentives under socialism, theories of adjustment incentives developed at the Harvard Business School to manage employees, and incentivizing whole economies—both socialist and capitalist. He shows that incentivization is a distinct way of wielding power. Incentives have become part of a quasi-universal governing philosophy that keeps us from addressing such major issues as poverty and the climate crisis. Finally, Dix analyzes the limits of incentivization, arguing that being governed by incentives keeps us from considering government policies that have the potential to bring about meaningful and transformative change.
