Editorial Reviews
Product Description
This is a revision of the business of global banking. With the increased globalization of the world economy few sectors are the equal of banking and financial services in dynamism or structural change. Roy C. Smith and Ingo Walter assess this transformation-its causes, its course and its consequences. They begon by examining international commercial banking, including the issue of cross-border risk evaluation and exposure management, and the creation of a viable regulatory framework in a global competitive context. hey then undertake a parallel assessment of international investment banking, linking the two by means of a bridge chapter. Finally, they focus on the factors that determine winners and losers in these markets and explore the problems of strategic position and execution.

So, you want to be a Banking Expert? ALWAYS: Ingo Walter, 2003-01-18
I have met Ingo Walters in 1988 when he gave a brilliant talk to hundreds of CEOs form the Banking Industry in Europe. Everyone was amazed at how brilliant Ingo was. He is an authentic expert in European and US Banking. In his book "Global Banking" any serious student or better yet Strategic Management Consultant can learn Operations, Strategy, IT, Treasury, and Risk Management from different parts of the world. Highly recommended for Upper Management and CEOs of Regional Banks who need a pathway to easily transition into being a World Player. Learn through this book what the Managing-Directors at McKinsey, Bain, BCG, etc., would tell you for over 1 million dollars.

Great Book on Global Banking, 2000-04-25
A great book. Exciting to read, clearly written and full of practical insights into global banking. Discusses tenable strategies for financial firms world-wide and contains insights that are difficult to find anywhere else. The authors taught a course based on this book at INSEAD and the book retains the liveliness and rigor of that excellent course.

A must buy for anyone connected with or interested in the structure and strategies of global finance firms.
