This book was released on 2000-01-01 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For a large part of the past decade, Japan has witnessed a steady deterioration in the health of its banking system. This paper examines what went wrong and why it has taken so long for the system to recover. While the paper traces the roots of the crisis to accelerated deregulation and deepening of capital markets without an appropriate adjustment in the regulatory framework, it identifies weak corporate governance and regulatory forbearance as the two factors behind what might have been an unnecessary prolongation of the distress of the financial system.

Download or read book High Rollers written by Martin Lowy and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 1991-07-30 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lowy avoids the easy answers, like blaming it on fraud and greed, and explains how something of this magnitude could occur under the noses of those who should have protected the taxpayer. Paul M. Horvitz, University of Houston Market forces, not scoundrels, destroyed the savings and loan business. So says Martin Lowy in what is truly an inside look at the savings and loan crisis. Drawing upon his experience as a practicing attorney, bank officer, and savings and loan director, Lowy provides an expert account of the problems that have overwhelmed the nation's savings institutions and their government regulators. High Rollers is the first book on the S&L crisis that provides an analytical groundwork for technical and nontechnical readers--so that both can comprehend what happened. Lowy's clear, readable style allows him to quickly describe the origins of the problems in new market forces and new technologies, and how the problems grew out of control as a result of regulatory mistakes and congressional inaction. Even his discussions of real estate lending practices and accounting issues are, in the words of Professor Horvitz, both clear to the novice and instructive to the professional.

Download or read book S L Hell written by Kathleen Day and published by W. W. Norton. This book was released on 1993 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The savings and loan mess is the greatest financial scandal in our nation's history. Over the course of the 1980s, that mess grew from a relatively modest problem early in the Reagan presidency to one that will cost an unimaginable $1 trillion - $4,000 for every man, woman, and child in the United States." "S & L Hell offers the most complete account of the causes of the catastrophe, spotlighting the role of the bumbling regulators, greedy thrift operators, sleazy lobbyists, venal and foolish politicians, presidents and a White House staff that consistently ignored the disaster - and the few heroes who struggled gamely to combat the looming problem. Its account is told through the stories of the leading players, men like the S&L president who dressed like a king and served his guests lion and antelope meat; the U.S. League of Savings Institutions, lobbyists who spread money (and much more) through the halls of the Capitol; the powerful representatives and senators, cutting deals in hallways, cloakrooms, and remote offices, "lawmakers" whose roles the scandal helped drive from office; the happy-go-lucky public relations man in over his head, who, as chairman of the Federal Home Loan Bank Board, found himself called upon to prevent a fiscal collapse of epic proportions. And the role that George Bush and his son Neil played in the debacle - a role much larger than the public has been made aware." "By taking the reader into agency back offices and congressional committee rooms where the crucial decisions were being made - such as that to raise FDIC insurance to $100,000 - S & L Hell also explores questions of continuing importance: the inevitable dangers when regulators first coddle, then fall under the control of the industry that they are charged with policing, and when elected officials become beholden to special interests through campaign contributions and other often bizarre special favors." "Told against the background of convulsive changes in the American financial system that doomed the mom-and-pop thrifts glorified in Its a Wonderful Life, S & L Hell's panorama of bankers and prostitutes, of members of Congress and Cabinet secretaries, is the ultimate story of greed in the 1980s - a story that we all will pay for over the decades to come."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Download or read book Financial Markets and Financial Crises written by R. Glenn Hubbard and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 1991-08-13 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Warnings of the threat of an impending financial crisis are not new, but do we really know what constitutes an actual episode of crisis and how, once begun, it can be prevented from escalating into a full-blown economic collapse? Using both historical and contemporary episodes of breakdowns in financial trade, contributors to this volume draw insights from theory and empirical data, from the experience of closed and open economies worldwide, and from detailed case studies. They explore the susceptibility of American corporations to economic downturns; the origins of banking panics; and the behavior of financial markets during periods of crisis. Sever papers specifically address the current thrift crisis—including a detailed analysis of the over 500 FSLIC-insured thrifts in the southeast—and seriously challenge the value of recent measures aimed at preventing future collapse in that industry. Government economists and policy makers, scholars of industry and banking, and many in the business community will find these timely papers an invaluable reference.

Download or read book The Nordic Banking Crisis written by Mr.Burkhard Drees and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 1998-04-20 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study examines the banking crises in Finland, Norway and Sweden, which took place in the early 1990s, and draws some policy conclusions from their experiences. One key conclusion is that factors in addition to business cycle effects explain the Nordic countries financial problems. Although the timing of the deregulation in all three countries coincided with a strongly expansionary macroeconomic momentum, the main reasons for the banking crises were the delayed policy responses, the structural characteristics of the financial systems, and the banks inadequate internal risk-management controls.
Download or read book The Japanese Banking Crisis written by Ryozo Himino and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-01-07 with total page 127 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access book provides a readable narrative of the bubbles and the banking crisis Japan experienced during the two decades between the late 1980s and the early 2000s. Japan, which was a leading competitor in the world’s manufacturing sector, tried to transform itself into an economy with domestic demand-led mature growth, but the ensuing bubbles and crisis instead made the country suffer from chronicle deflation and stagnation. The book analyses why the Japanese authorities could not avoid making choices that led to this outcome. The chapters are based on the lectures to regulators from emerging economies delivered at the Global Financial Partnership Center of the Financial Services Agency of Japan.
Download or read book Global Waves of Debt written by M. Ayhan Kose and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2021-03-03 with total page 403 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The global economy has experienced four waves of rapid debt accumulation over the past 50 years. The first three debt waves ended with financial crises in many emerging market and developing economies. During the current wave, which started in 2010, the increase in debt in these economies has already been larger, faster, and broader-based than in the previous three waves. Current low interest rates mitigate some of the risks associated with high debt. However, emerging market and developing economies are also confronted by weak growth prospects, mounting vulnerabilities, and elevated global risks. A menu of policy options is available to reduce the likelihood that the current debt wave will end in crisis and, if crises do take place, will alleviate their impact.
