Greed and Capitalism

What kind of society isn't structured on greed? The problem of social organization is how to set up an arrangement under which greed will do the least harm; capitalism is that kind of a system.

Financial Markets (2011) (ECON 252)

Professor Shiller characterizes investment banking by contrasting it to consulting, commercial banking, and securities trading.

Then, in order to see the essence of investment banking, he reviews some of the principles that John Whitehead, the former chairman of Goldman Sachs, has formulated.

These principles are the basis for a discussion of the substantial power that investment bankers have, and their role in society.

Government regulation of these powerful investment banks has been a thorny issue for many years, and especially so now since they played a significant role in world financial crisis of the 2000s.
