Andrew Haldane on Tackling the Credit Cycle and Too-Big-To-Fail
About the Speaker: Andrew Haldane is the Executive Director of Financial Stability at the Bank of England. Since joining the Bank in 1989, he has held a number of key positions and written extensively on domestic and international monetary and financial stability. He is the author of around 80 articles and three books on issues including central bank independence, international financial crises, financial stability frameworks, inflation targeting and payment systems. Most recently, he has made a number of important contributions to the discourse on the global financial crisis. Andrew Haldane is a member of various economics associations, editorial boards, academic advisory committees and international public policy committees, including the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision. He co-founded the charity 'Pro Bono Economics,' which brokers economists into projects in the charitable sector. About the Event: After giving brief (and staggering) estimates of the costs of the global financial crisis, Andrew Haldane identified the systemic risk which triggered the collapse as having two root causes: 1) the credit cycle and 2) institutions that had been allowed to become 'too-big-to-fail' (TBTF). The first problem is conjunctural, the second structural. They combined in particularly devastating fashion to cause the crisis, with the latter problem amplifying the former. Ireland is as good a case study as can be found of the interaction of these two factors, but the UK, Iceland <b>...</b>

Too Big to Fail?
In a speech on the Floor of the House of Representatives in 1999, Congressman Dingell warns against repealing the Glass-Steagall Act of 1933. He argues that repealing the law would allow banks to become "too big to fail," which would cause instability in financial system. Nonetheless, Congress repealed the law and the nation suffered the tragic consequences of the 2008 financial crisis about a decade later.

Euro Funnel: 'Spain too big to fail'
The latest efforts to prevent eurozone members and the single currency falling into the financial abyss begin later. European ministers will meet to discuss the effectiveness of bailouts for Portugal and Greece. Concerns have been raised that the measures are not working in Greece. While Portugal's crumbling economy is desperate for a 78 billion euro rescue package. Across the border in Spain, there were outbreaks of violence during protests against austerity cuts as the country struggles to deal with record-high unemployment. And as RT's Sara Firth reports, Madrid could be next in line for an EU handout. For more on the European bailouts, RT talks to Javier Diaz-Gimenez Professor of Economics at the University of Navarra, who is in Madrid. RT on Facebook: www.facebook.com RT on Twitter: twitter.com

PROHIBITION: Too-Big-To-Fail-Bailed-Out Banks Use Drug Money They Launder To Keep Afloat In Crisis
How To Go To Heaven: www.jesus-is-savior.com www.reuters.com UN crime chief says drug money flowed into banks Jan 25, 2009 (Reuters) - The United Nations' crime and drug watchdog has indications that money made in illicit drug trade has been used to keep banks afloat in the global financial crisis, its head was quoted as saying on Sunday. Vienna-based UNODC Executive Director Antonio Maria Costa said in an interview released by Austrian weekly Profil that drug money often became the only available capital when the crisis spiralled out of control last year. "In many instances, drug money is currently the only liquid investment capital," Costa was quoted as saying by Profil. "In the second half of 2008, liquidity was the banking system's main problem and hence liquid capital became an important factor." The United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime had found evidence that "interbank loans were funded by money that originated from drug trade and other illegal activities," Costa was quoted as saying. There were "signs that some banks were rescued in that way." Profil said Costa declined to identify countries or banks which may have received drug money and gave no indication how much cash might be involved. He only said Austria was not on top of his list, Profil said.

Nomi Prins: Too Big To Fail Means Too Big To Exist
ourfuture.org captures Nomi Prins, a former Wall Street insider who is now a senior fellow at Demos, speaking to the Economic Policy Institute about the state of the financial industry one year after the climax of the Wall Street meltdown. Prins explains why, in many ways, Wall Street is riskier today and more prone to take down the economy through its casino-like behavior than it was before the crash. Her new book, "It Takes A Pillage," proposes radical but necessary reforms of Wall Street. Also, the director of Americans for Financial Reform explains what activists can do on Capitol Hill to at least begin to change the financial sector.

Too Big to Fail 2.0: This Time It's Personal Finance and Just About Everything Else
As the one-year anniversary of TARP chugs into view, Reason.tv's Nick Gillespie sat down with Reason Foundation policy analyst Anthony Randazzo to look at the next round of comprehensive financial regulations being crafted in Washington, DC The short version? Get ready for government oversight of just about every burp, hiccup, and fart in the economic system, from payday loans to "systemic risk." Three major proposals are high on President Barack Obama's fall agenda and if pending legislation passes, says Randazzo, the government will create a multi-tiered system for identifying financial institutions that are explicitly "too big to fail." The likely result? Far less choice and innovation for consumers and industry alike, a slower and weaker recovery, and a huge bill for taxpayers. For more details, read Randazzo's new study, "The Future of Too Big To Fail and Bailouts." Related videos: George Mason University and Mercatus Center scholar Todd Zywicki on "The Next Great Leap Backwards for Consumer 'Rights'" and "Turning Japanese: Is America creating its own Lost Decade?"

Some say - "Get your government out of my business" We say - "Fine... get your business out of our government"
Obama Takes On Banks "Too Big To Fail"
Twitter log: It's important to not lose sight of what got us into this mess in first place." Financial orgs doing risky stuff. Bank rescue "extremely offensive" but needed. Most of TARP money has been recovered. But we need reform prevent future crisis. Rules that led to near financial collapse are still the same. We need to reform them. "Never again will the American taxpayer be held hostage by a bank that is 'too big to fail'". First reform- Banks should not stray from serving customers. No more hedge fund or private equity fund investments by banks. Banks should not be able to use "cheap money" to trade for profit. We can no longer have a system where shareholders win if the banks do well, but taxpayers lose if the banks crash. Reform #2 - We need to prevent banking consolidation. Having a few massive firms is not good for consumers/taxpayers. "If these folks want a fight (banks, financial orgs) that's a fight I'm willing to have." We can't return to business as usual. That's why we're going to pass these banking reforms into law. Distributed by Tubemogul.
