Reviews

The book provides a clear account of where we stand on banking reform and how much remains to be done. I hope Mr. Clinton and the Congress might draw the lesson that it is time to complete the job, in the interest of the strong banking and financial system the country needs. --Paul Volcker, Former Chairman, Federal Reserve Board and Chairman, James D. Wolfensohn, Inc.
