State-Owned Enterprise in the Western Economies (Routledge Revivals)

First published in 1981, this edited collection reviews the operations of state-owned enterprises, examining the actual performance of such organisations in the advanced industrialised countries. The authors consider the regularities and characteristics of state-owned enterprises, in particular the persistent efforts of managers to increase their autonomy and escape from the oversight of government agencies and the public. Chapters consider principles of finance and decision-making in these organisations and provide a truly international perspective with case studies in Italy, France and Britain. This is a timely reissue in context of the current economic climate, which will be of great value to students and academics with an interest in the nationalisation of companies, international business and the relationship between governments and managers.

Borrowed Time

The alarming, untold story of Citigroup—one of the largest financial institutions in the world—from its founding in 1812 to its role in the 2008 financial crisis, and the many near-death experiences and government bailouts in between. During the 2008 financial crisis, we were told that Citi was a victim of events beyond its control—the larger financial panic, unforeseen economic disruptions and a perfect storm of credit expansion and private greed. To save the economy and keep the bank afloat, the government provided huge infusions of cash through multiple bailouts that frustrated and angered the American public. But, as Wall Street Journal writer James Freeman and financial expert Vern McKinley reveal in this gripping work of business history, the 2008 crisis was just one of many disasters Citi has experienced since its founding more than two hundred years ago. In Borrowed Time they reveal Citi’s disturbing history of instability and government support. It’s a story that neither Citi nor Washington wants told. Citi has long been tied to the federal government in a relationship that has benefited both. From its earliest years, its well-connected leadership—most of its initial stockholders had owned stock in the Bank of the United States—took massive risks that led to crisis. But thanks to a rescue by private investors, including John Jacob Astor, the bank survived throughout the nineteenth century, long before the era of "too big to fail" bailouts. This is just the tip of the iceberg. The scale of the financial panic of 2008 was hardly unprecedented. As Borrowed Time shows, crisis and outright disasters—and the moral hazard they create—have been surprisingly common during the century of government-protected banking—especially at Citi. This meticulously researched work of financial history reveals the shocking pattern of risk and rescue that defines America’s most controversial bank:A Two-Hundred-Year History of Crises: Go beyond the 2008 financial crisis to uncover the bank’s many near-collapses, from the Panic of 1837 to the modern era, and the powerful figures like John Jacob Astor who intervened.The Wall Street and Washington Connection: Examine the secret history of the deals and relationships that have tied one of America’s largest financial institutions to the federal government for centuries.A Pattern of Financial Instability: Discover how Citigroup’s cycle of massive risk-taking and subsequent taxpayer-funded rescues became an unnerving feature of the American economy.Deeply Researched Economic History: Based on extensive archival research, this is the explosive story that neither the bank nor the government wants the public to know.
