It follows the fortunes and misfortunes of individual banks, from RBS to Lloyds. It exposes instances of mis-selling, money laundering, interest rate fixing and incompetence. And it considers the bigger picture: how the failings of the world's banking system are threatening to undermine our future economic security. Alex Brummer, the City Editor of the Daily Mail, has had access to all the major players, from HBOS' Andy Hornby, to former Governor of the Bank of England Sir Mervyn King, to the ex-Chief Executive of Barclays, Bob Diamond, to Lloyds' Antonio Horta-Osorio. His book is an insightful - and terrifying - account of institutions once renowned for their probity, but now all too often a byword for incompetence, and worse. 0aBanks and bankingxCorrupt practices. 0aBanks and banking, InternationalxMoral and ethical aspects. 0aGlobal Financial Crisis, 2008-2009xMoral and ethical aspects. 0aBancos y bancasxPrácticas corruptas 0aBancos y bancas internacionalesxAspectos moral y ética 0aCrisis global financiera, 2008-2009xAspectos moral y ética
