Download or read book From Buildings and Loans to Bail Outs written by David L. Mason and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2004-07-05 with total page 363 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For most Americans, the savings and loan industry is defined by the fraud, ineptitude and failures of the 1980s. However, these events overshadow a long history in which thrifts played a key role in helping thousands of households buy homes. First appearing in the 1830s savings and loans, then known as building and loans, encourage their working-class members to adhere to the principles of thrift and mutual co-operation as a way to achieve the 'American Dream' of home ownership. This book traces the development of this industry from its origins as a movement of a loosely affiliated collection of institutions into a major element of America's financial markets. It also analyses how diverse groups of Americans, including women, ethnic Americans and African Americans, used thrifts to improve their lives and elevate their positions in society. Finally the overall historical perspective sheds new light on the events of the 1980s and analyses the efforts to rehabilitate the industry in the 1990s.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work provides an in-depth examination of the history of the U.S. thrift industry from 1950 to the present, with particular emphasis on the leading role played by Texas in transforming savings and loans (S&Ls) from financiers of home mortgages to the multipurpose financial entities they are today. The purpose of the book is not only to chronicle the response of the national S&L industry to various laws, economic conditions, and changing times, but also to demonstrate how, in Texas, state-chartered S&Ls provided a model of reform which reshaped not only the Texas S&L industry but the national industry as well. The authors also explore the current problems faced by the industry and present proposals which could help it move towards recovery. An ideal supplementary text for courses on financial institutons, this book will also be of significant value to thrift industry officials and policymakers concerned with resolving the massive problems confronting the industry. Organized chronologically, the book begins with an overview of national S&L activity from the inception of the industry in the mid-1800s through the postwar S&L boom. There follow separate chapters devoted to the 1950s American housing explosion and its impact on S&Ls; the 1966-1978 era of irregular price movements and unpredictable inflation; the period of crisis during the early 1980s marked by foreclosures, insolvency, and forced mergers. A detailed chapter covering the last five years examines both the period of apparent recovery from 1983-86 and the second crisis of the decade which began in 1986. The authors conclude by assessing the magnitude of the industry's remaining problems and pinpointing possible future problems of which the industry need to be conscious.

Book excerpt: New York Times Bestseller: A history of the S&L scandal that caused a financial disaster for American taxpayers: “Hard to put down” (Library Journal). For most of the 20th century, savings and loans were an invaluable thread of the American economy. But in the 1970s, Congress passed sweeping financial deregulation at the insistence of industry insiders that allowed these once quaint and useful institutions to spread their taxpayer-insured assets into new and risky investments. The looser regulations and reduced federal oversight also opened the industry to an army of shady characters, white-collar criminals, and organized crime groups. Less than 10 years later, half the nation’s savings and loans were insolvent, leaving the American taxpayer on the hook for a large hunk of the nearly half a trillion dollars that had gone missing. The authors of Inside Job saw signs of danger long before the scandal hit nationwide. Decades after the savings and loan collapse, Inside Job remains a thrilling read and a sobering reminder that our financial institutions are more fragile than they appear.
