What is it that makes banks special? The distinguishing feature of a bank is that its assets are mostly long-term, illiquid and risky, whereas its liabilities are short-term, liquid and perceived as safe. Returns on riksy long-term assets are normally higher than the returns which the bank has to offer on its short-term liabilities. So banking is highly profitable. Unfortunately, the notion that a bank can offer safe returns on deposits that can be withdrawn at a moment's notice by using them to finance long-term illiquid risky invesments is, as common sense would suggest, generally false. The transformation of short-term liabilities into long-term assets - borrowing short to lend long - is known as maturity transformation. And the creation of deposits, which are regarded by the depositors... (查看原文)

--《炼金术的终结/The End of Alchemy》 严格而言,英格兰银行(英国的中央银行)前行长默文·金(Mervyn King)的新作《The End of Alchemy》不是一本学术著作,更像是关于中央银行、金融危机、宏观经济学革命、银行监管改革的大众普及读物。默文·金1991年加...

世界充满不确定性与失衡,急于维稳的对策容易失效。可持续发展是比求稳更重要的出发点。

挺不错的科普读物,除了美国外,对欧洲和中国也有不少涉猎。如果对世界金融/经济史的框架没什么概念,本书是很好的入门读物。对框架有了一定理解后,更多算是随作者捋一遍逻辑。对经济学派的简介没有点透,提出的“不确定性”概念也有神棍嫌疑...可能我作为鼠目寸光的小透明,只能接受正统理论吧
