Download or read book Wall Street Values written by Michael A. Santoro and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2012-12-17 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This timely book answers complex and perplexing questions raised by Wall Street's role in the financial crisis. What are the economic and moral connections between Wall Street and the overall economy? How did we arrive at this point in history where our most powerful financial institutions thwart rather than promote free markets, prosperity and even social cohesion? Can the fractured relationship between Wall Street and Main Street be repaired? Wall Street Values chronicles the transformation of Wall Street's business model from serving clients to proprietary trading and explains how this shift undermined the ethical foundations of the modern financial industry. Michael A. Santoro and Ronald J. Strauss argue that post-millennial Wall Street is not only 'too big to fail' but also a threat to the economy even when it succeeds.
Download or read book Undue Influence written by Charles R. Geisst and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2004-11-17 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A critical look at over 80 years of conflict, collusion, and corruption between financiers and politicians Undue Influence paints a vivid portrait of the dealings between "the few", in this case members of Congress, the banking community, and the Fed, and sheds light on how radical new deregulatory measures could be introduced by unelected officials and then foisted upon Congress in the name of progress. In the process, the background of the new financial elite is examined-because they are markedly different than their predecessors of the 1920s and 1930s. Undue Influence also brings readers up to speed on other important issues, including how the financial elite has been able to perpetuate itself, how the markets lend themselves to these special interest groups, and how it is possible that after 80 years of financial regulation and regulatory bodies the same problems of financial malfeasance and fraud still plague the markets. Charles R. Geisst (Oradell, NJ) is the author of 15 books, including Wheels of Fortune (0-471-47973-X), Deals of the Century (0-471-26397-4) and the bestsellers Wall Street: A History and 100 Years of Wall Street. Geisst has taught both political science and finance, worked in banking and finance on Wall Street and in London, as well as consulted. His articles have been published in the International Herald Tribune, Neue Zurcher Zeitung, Newsday, Wall Street Journal, and Euromoney.

Do you know what the tax rates will be for the rest of your life? Do you know how long you're going to live?

Download or read book How to Really Occupy Wall Street written by Ikram Hawramani and published by . This book was released on 2017-02-15 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Renaissance came about partly as a result of economic principles enforced by European kings and clergy. These principles weakened in the 18th century until they were entirely lost from the public consciousness. This book is a historically-informed guide for bringing back these principles to create a new Renaissance economic system that rewards rich and poor alike, that makes automation a friend, rather than an enemy, of the working class, and that makes it impossible for the bankers and their associates to control and corrupt Western democracies.Our entire political and financial system is designed to enrich a small class of people by continually pushing profits toward them, while pushing losses onto the rest of society. These people push our government into continuous wars so as to increase their interest earnings from the national debt, with no remorse or feeling for the immense suffering they create. They push for immigration and outsourcing to reduce their costs and increase their profits, without any care for the economic destruction this causes both locally and abroad.Their wealth has skyrocketed just as the economy has stagnated and living standards have fallen. Their greed destroyed trillions of the nation's wealth, made millions of families homeless and put millions out of work in 2008. This is going to continue, it will keep happening every eight to nine years unless something serious is done about it. And they, with their immense wealth and power, will do everything they can to prevent anything from being done about it.The solution to our evil and greedy banks, corporations, universities, and governments is not communism, free market capitalism or socialism. It is to bring back the core ideas that led to the European Renaissance, financial principles inspired by the teachings of Socrates, Aristotle, Cicero and the Bible, principles that were enforced by churches and kings (Catholic and Protestant) for 15 centuries--until the banks and their lobbyists managed to corrupt Europe's clergy, intelligentsia and monarchs. By analyzing Wall Street's various sources of power (many of themrarely examined) and providing alternatives that cripple them, this book shows many practical steps toward retaking our economic, education and political system from their grips so that they begin to serve the needs of the average citizen.We can create local pockets of prosperity in our communities that bypass Wall Street's destructive influence, while also working to change the rest of the system for the better. And it all starts with a historically-informed understanding of the way the system works.

Download or read book The Failure of Wall Street written by Erik Banks and published by St. Martin's Press. This book was released on 2014-12-23 with total page 303 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wall Street, the world's primary financial market and middleman, is in many ways a success. It brings together and places capital, creates new and innovative financial products, and buys and sells physical and financial assets. Its role in global economic growth has been, and remains, unique and vital. In spite of its importance and strengths, however, Wall Street repeatedly fails. At all levels, Wall Street makes serious mistakes in its core areas of expertise – falling short of its potential when raising capital, giving advice or managing risk, and demonstrating vulnerabilities when carrying out its responsibilities. These failures, which damage both finances and reputations, often affect a broad range of insiders and outsiders: employees and managers, personal and corporate clients, investors, creditors and regulators. In some cases they destabilize entire sectors and economies. Worse, many of these failures are likely to plague Wall Street for years to come, until there is greater willingness to recognize and resolve the underlying problems. The Failure of Wall Street analyzes how and why Wall Street fails, and what can be done to rectify the failures. After a short discussion of Wall Street's role in raising capital, granting corporate and personal advice, managing risk and acting as a trusted financial analyst, Erik Banks explores the dramatic failures that have occurred in each of these areas, using case studies and examples to illustrate the nature and extent of the problems. Next, the book demonstrates why Wall Street fails in each area of supposed "expertise," focusing on shortcomings in governance, management, skills/controls and transparency. Lastly, Banks proposes a framework for addressing the shortfalls that continue to plague Wall Street. He argues that these solutions, while not quick, easy, or cheap to implement, can help make Wall Street become the sound, consistent, and efficient financial expert it is meant to be.
