Abstract
The first nine chapters of this book should have brought to the reader’s attention the impossible situation the banking industry has created for itself, on-balance-sheet and off-balance-sheet. Bad enough though their case is, the subprimes are not the only reason why investment banks, commercial banks, mortgage lenders, non-bank banks, and other financial institutions are in trouble.
