The Bankers’ New Clothes Part One

About this episode

This weekend we're joined by Anat Admati, co-author of The Bankers’ New Clothes: What’s Wrong with Banking and What to Do about It. New bank failures have been a rude awakening for everyone who believed that the banking industry was reformed after the Global Financial Crisis, and that we’d never again have to choose between massive bailouts and financial havoc. The Bankers’ New Clothes uncovers just how little things have changed, and why banks are still so dangerous.
