Anmeldelser
«Utterly convincing… The Finance Curse is a radical and important manifesto for improving Britain»
Oliver Bullough, author of MONEYLAND
«This is a splendid polemic against modern finance, in general, and the City of London, in particular. It is hard-hitting, well written and informative. Instead of enabling productive investment, the predominant activity of contemporary finance is rent extraction. This comes in many different guises: modern finance does not only promote tax avoidance and evasion, but, argues Shaxson, enables gangsterism and corruption on an enormous scale. I fear he is right.»
Martin Wolf, Financial Times
«This superbly written book shows definitively how global finance has been grossly mis-sold to us all. It’s a must-read for anyone who lives, works and spends in this country»
MISHA GLENNY, author of McMafia
«Gripping . . . a superbly written overview»
