Lombard Street: A Description of the Money Market

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Bagehot, Walter / Bernstein, Peter L., PUBLISHER: John Wiley & Sons, Lombard Street began as a series of articles the esteemed essayist and financial advisor, Walter Bagehot had written for The Economist during the s. First published in book form in , it is a vivid description of the money market that seamlessly brings together theoretical analyses, historical anecdotes, and incisive commentary on sociology, politics, and the Street's various personalities. Sharing his invaluable insights and unique observations, Bagehot touches on everything from the mechanics of deposit banking within a fractional reserve system to the nature of foreign deposits in Britain. Along with a clear explanation of why economic growth and rising living standards are dependent upon a well-managed financial system, he offers straightforward guidelines for the function of lender-of-last resort; a penetrating look at the consequences of uncontrolled credit and speculation; and an in-depth examination of the exchequer in the money market that includes a stimulating analysis of the interaction between the government's fiscal operations and the functioning of the Bank of England, the commercial banks, and the money market. Perhaps most importantly, Lombard Street features Bagehot's prescription for crisis management, which after nearly 150 years, remains the formula of choice for containing-and curtailing-financial crises. Filled with descriptions of Lombard Street that still ring true today, this jewel of a book has withstood the test of time to become a true investment classic-one that will appeal as much to the readers of today as it did to those of years ago.

The Six-Day Financial Makeover: Transform Your Financial

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Pagliarini, Robert, PUBLISHER: St. Martin's Press, This isn't your father's personal finance book. The way we currently save and invest is confusing, frustrating, and quite simply doesn't work. Get ready for a personal finance book that is actually unique. Get ready for financial strategies that you've never seen or heard before. Get ready to transform your financial life in less than a week Robert Pagliarini has taken budgeting, investing, insurance, and retirement planning--subjects that most of us find stressful and overwhelmingly complex--and made it approachable and even manageable through his unsinkable optimism and relentless simplification process. He says, "We're going to take the pie-in-the-sky theories and turn them into bite-size pieces that you can and will be able to implement in your life immediately." THE SIX DAY FINANCIAL MAKEOVER does a lot of things really well, but I'll just tell you about three. First and foremost it actually provides advice--yes, real advice. Not wishy-washy "maybe you should do this" or "it all depends on your situation" nonsense (what Robert calls "financial fog"). Second, it has an action bias. No, not really a bias, more like a mantra. Implement, implement, implement is the theme in every chapter and on every page (there's even a patent-pending free web site at www.sixdayfinancialmakeover.com readers can use to help them take the advice they read and incorporate it into their lives). Three, it is full of brand-new, never seen before financial shortcuts and strategies such as: " " Why your seven year old is a better investor than you are. Kids intuitively understand how to save and invest better than most adults. The trick is focus and creating separate physical accounts for themyriad goals we have. There is no "right" way to invest. What's crucial is that people determine their investment personality - particularly how involved they want to be with investing - and let that be their guide. Disregarding one's investment personality and pursuing an approach that's not compatible with it is a recipe for disaster. Why you shouldn't work for a paycheck. Most of us work to earn a paycheck, right? Well that's the wrong way to think about work. Once we can align our life's vision and deepest goals to our income, we start to see our purpose for waking up each morning entirely differently. Work is no longer work--it becomes a catalyst that helps us achieve our goals. The most important thing you should save for (and it's not retirement). What's more important and more satisfying than retirement? Financial independence. Discover how many days your passive income could support your lifestyle (if your score is less than 31, don't quit your day job). The more information and choices you have, the worse your finances will be. There are more financial books, magazines, journals, newspapers, radio shows, TV shows, web sites, Podcasts, and free information available today, yet most of

A Natural History of Nature Writing

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Stewart, Frank, PUBLISHER: Island Press, "A Natural History of Nature Writing" is a penetrating overview of the origins and development of a uniquely American literature. Essayist and poet Frank Stewart describes in rich and compelling prose the lives and works of the most prominent American nature writers of the19th and 20th centuries, including: Henry D. Thoreau, the father of American nature writing. John Burroughs, a schoolteacher and failed businessman who found his calling as a writer and elevated the nature essay to a loved and respected literary form. John Muir, founder of Sierra Club, who celebrated the wilderness of the Far West as few before him had. Aldo Leopold, a Forest Service employee and scholar who extended our moral responsibility to include all animals and plants. Rachel Carson, a scientist who raised the consciousness of the nation by revealing the catastrophic effects of human intervention on the Earth's living systems. Edward Abbey, an outspoken activist who charted the boundaries of ecological responsibility and pushed these boundaries to political extremes. Stewart highlights the controversies ignited by the powerful and eloquent prose of these and other writers with their expansive - and often strongly political - points of view. Combining a deeply-felt sense of wonder at the beauty surrounding us with a rare ability to capture and explain the meaning of that beauty, nature writers have had a profound effect on American culture and politics. "A Natural History of Nature Writing" is an insightful examination of an important body of American literature.

There Is a Better Way: A New Economic Agenda

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Smith, John Grieve / Grieve Smith, John, PUBLISHER: Anthem Press, Has the British Labour Party lost its way? In this critical analysis of New Labour's economic and welfare policies, John Grieve Smith suggests that, far from pursuing any new Third Way, Tony Blair's Government is actively consolidating the Thatcherite Revolution. He argues that if Labour is to break the Thatcherite mould and achieve its long-standing objective of a fairer society, it must adopt radically different policies. John Grieve Smith analyzes the policies needed to achieve genuine full employment, and examines the continued whittling away of social security benefits and the need for higher and more progressive taxation if the quality of health and education services is to be improved. The greatest challenge of coming decades for Britain is to develop more effective international institutions in the economic and other fields. Here, John Grieve Smith puts forward a program of major reforms of the global financial system, to make both developing and industrialized countries less vulnerable to unstable financial markets. This lively and controversial book is a timely contribution to the debate over the future of New Labour.

Monetary Reform and Cooperation Theory

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Macesich, George, PUBLISHER: Praeger, This volume demonstrates how monetary and financial organizations in the United States and abroad can be improved through a new addition to traditional monetary policy. Cooperation theory, a system developed from games theory, is shown to provide an appropriate action/reaction approach that can lead to cooperation without abandoning the free market. Institutional, theoretical, and empirical results of game theory, computer simulation, monetary theory, and policy analysis are woven together so that each reinforces the other. The text clearly stresses that although unilateral, noncooperative action may result in short-term advantage for an organization, it ultimately leads to long-term losses for all in the economic system. Monetary Reform and Cooperation Theory opens with a discussion of cooperation theory. It goes on to address improving the monetary financial organization. Bureaucracy and philosophy are analyzed, along with reform in the banking industry and banking in other countries. The book concludes with issues of international creditors and debtors. This work is full of useful information for the general economist, political scientist, and layman on the complex issue of monetary reform and the positive role cooperation theory can play in this vital process.

Off-Balance Sheet Activities

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Saunders, Anthony C. / Sondhi, Ashwinpaul / Saunders, Anthony, PUBLISHER: Quorum Books, The objective of Off-Balance Sheet Activities is to gain insights into, and propose meaningful solutions to, those issues raised by the current proliferation of off-balance sheet transactions. The book has its origins in a New York University conference that focused on this topic. Jointly undertaken by the Vincent C. Ross Institute of Accounting Research and New York University's Salomon Center for the study of Financial Institutions at the Stern School of Business, the conference brought together academic researchers and practitioners in the field of accounting and finance to address the issues with the broad-mindedness requisite of a group whose approaches to solutions are as different from each other as their respectively theoretical and applied approaches to the disciplines of finance and accounting. The essays are divided into two sections. The first covers issues surrounding OBS activities and banking and begins with a brief introduction that places the essays into context. OBS activities and the underinvestment problem, whether loan sales are really OBS, and money demand and OBS liquidity are examined in detail. Section two, which also begins with a brief introduction, focuses on issues of securitized assets and financing. A report on recognition and measurement issues in accounting for securitized assets is followed by three separate discussion essays. Other subjects covered include contract theoretic analysis of OBS financing, the use of OBS financing to circumvent financial covenant restrictions, and debt contracting and financial contracting. The latter two contributions are also followed by discussion essays. This unique collection of papers will prove to be an interestingand valuable tool for accounting and finance professionals as well as for academics involved in these fields. It will also be an important addition to public, college, and university libraries.

The Hellhound of Wall Street: How Ferdinand Pecora's

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Perino, Michael, PUBLISHER: Penguin Press, A gripping account of the underdog Senate lawyer who unmasked the financial wrongdoing that led to the Crash of and forever changed the relationship between Washington and Wall Street. In "The Hellhound of Wall Street," Michael Perino recounts in riveting detail the hearings that put Wall Street on trial for the Great Crash. Never before in American history had so many financial titans been called to account before the public, and they had come within a few weeks of emerging unscathed. By the time Ferdinand Pecora, a Sicilian immigrant and former New York prosecutor, took over as chief counsel, the investigation had dragged on ineffectively for nearly a year and was universally written off as dead. "The Hellhound of Wall Street" provides a minute-by-minute account of the ten dramatic days when Pecora turned the hearings around, cross- examining the officers of National City Bank (today's Citigroup), particularly its chairman, Charles Mitchell, one of the best known bankers of his day. Mitchell strode into the hearing room in obvious disdain for the proceedings, but he left utterly disgraced. Pecora's rigorous questioning revealed that City Bank was guilty of shocking financial abuses, from selling worthless bonds to manipulating its stock price. Most offensive of all was the excessive compensation and bonuses awarded to its executives for peddling shoddy securities to the American public. Pecora became an unlikely hero to a beleaguered nation. The man whom the press called "the hellhound of Wall Street" was the son of a struggling factory worker. Precocious and determined, he became one of New York's few Italian American lawyers at a time when Italians were frequently stereotyped as anarchic criminals. The image of an immigrant lawyer challenging a blue-blooded Wall Street tycoon was just one more sign that a fundamental shift was taking place in America. By creating the sensational headlines needed to galvanize public opinion for reform, the Pecora hearings spurred Congress to take unprecedented steps to rein in the freewheeling banking industry and led directly to the New Deal's landmark economic reforms. A gripping courtroom drama with remarkable contemporary relevance, "The Hellhound of Wall Street" brings to life a crucial turning point in American financial history.

For Each the Strength of All: A History of Banking in New

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Hubbard, J. T. W. / Hubbard, Jtw / Lasserre, Phillippe, PUBLISHER: New York University Press, Banking establishments, declared Thomas Jefferson back in , are more dangerous than standing armies. Such armies are no longer cause for serious alarm. But commercial banking institutions, while justly applauded as the prime architects of America's economic success, are still assailed today--most recently by victims of the savings and loan debacle--as little better than the freakish hydra-headed monstrosities of yesteryear. This lively, well-researched, and handsomely produced book, highlights the achievements of commercial banks, in the process distinguishing them from their more flamboyant competitors. In many ways the history of commercial banking in the state of New York constitutes the history of commercial banking for the entire nation. Under the guidance of the formidable but shadowy coalition of talent known as The Albany Regency, New York pioneered such innovations as the insurance of paper currency, so-called free chartering of banks by any qualified group of citizens, a crude form of deposit insurance, and an ingenious central clearing house whose collective strength enabled the state, and ultimately the nation, to weather many of the world's most severe financial crises. Published to coincide with the Centennial of the New York State Bankers Association, "For Each, the Strength of All" not only delineates the great achievements and the great financial disasters of the last two centuries, but brings to life the colorful and often quirky men who made the key decisions at pivotal moments in the financial life of the nation. It throws new light on the celebrated duel between Hamilton and Burr (a fix that may have gone awry), the covert financing of the North in the Civil War years, and the negotiations (so secret that participants travelled under assumed names) that helped produce the Federal Reserve Act of .
