Something old and something new: Novel and familiar drivers of the latest crisis
Speech by Adair Turner, Chairman, Financial Services Authority
Speech by Adair Turner, Chairman, Financial Services Authority on the occasion of the EABH Conference "Responding to Crises in the Global Financial Environment -Risk Management and Regulation taking place in Brussels 21-22 May 2010.
The Guardian, 22 May 2010
"(...) The City's top regulator said that the primary cause of the current crisis lay within the financial system. Lord Turner, chairman of the Financial Services Authority, told an audience of bankers in Brussels: "for most countries the cause of the rapid increase in sovereign debt has been the financial crisis itself and the tax implications for property booms and busts, which derived from financial system excess. More than in some past crises, this sovereign debt crisis has its origin in financial system deficits."
200 Years of Savings Banks
A strong and lasting business model for responsible, regional retail banking
Edinburgh, 10 June 2010
WSBI and ESBG will examine in this conference how pioneers of the time created a strong and dynamic segment of the financial sector and will analyse the current institutions that represent the savings and retail banking sector at the beginning of the 21 century. What is the secret of their extraordinary client proximity? How do they reconcile the need for profitability with the desire to return part of their profits to society? What challenges await them, now the financial sector has gone through an unprecedented turmoil?
