The financial crisis, when Britain experienced its first bank run in more than a century, and two of its four biggest banks had to be partly nationalised, was humbling. Both the public and politicians demanded radical change. This week the shape of that change became clearer with the release of a report by the Independent Commission on Banking (ICB), which urged the government to impose a "ring-fence": a strict separation between the retail and investment-banking operations of Britain's banks. The commission, chaired by Sir John Vickers, an independent-minded economist, also called for a big increase in the amount of capital held within these ring-fenced banks as a buffer against losses. The commission was set up by the coalition government last year. Opini Anda Klik untuk menuliskan opini Anda tentang koleksi ini! Kembali
