- The research in this 140,000-word book took 4 years to complete. The book is informed by the results of interviews with regulators, bankers, financial journalists and credit analysts in the UK, USA, Australia and Canada and by a detailed balance sheet analysis of 20 major global banks (using Bankscope). The completed manuscript offers a distinctive ‘bank-centric’ approach to the financial crisis: emphasising intra-country and inter-country differences between the organisational cultures and balance sheet exposures of large banks.
