From Library Journal:
Smith ( The Money Wars , LJ 10/15/90, and The Global Bankers , LJ 9/1/89) believes that in the new world economy of the 1990s we will see the emergence of old financial institutions that have slimmed down, restructured, consolidated, and positioned themselves to offer a variety of financial services (banking, brokerage, insurance, etc.). In the forefront will be American banks. Smith looks at the U.S., European, and Japanese financial systems at length, reviewing the past, reflecting on the present, and speculating on the future of each. His conclusion: the United States will move ahead of other countries and a revival of U.S. banking and finance will not only spearhead a recovery of American financial power but also present enormous opportunities globally. Smith demonstrates that he's given much thought to his topic; only time will tell whether he is correct. Suitable for most business collections.
