― Gar Alperovitz, author of What Then Must We Do?

What do they think they’re doing?
The global network of banks, brokers, funds, dealers, servicers, and all the rest is a marvel of the 21st century―for better and frequently worse. In the aftermath of the worst financial crisis in a generation, there has never been a more important time to understand how the system works... and why it doesn’t.
Checking the Banks is an easy-to-read primer on how a bank―and the banking system―works. Complex ideas, like bank capital, leverage, risk-weighting, and repo transactions are explained in clear, understandable language.
