Of these, 85 percent failures between 2008 and 2011 (see below). The failures of the smaller banks or 353 had less than $1 billion in (those with less than $1 billion in assets) in these states were largely driven by assets. These small banks often credit losses on commercial real estate (CRE) loans. The failed banks also had specialize in small business lending often pursued aggressive growth strategies using nontraditional, riskier funding and are associated with local sources and exhibited weak underwriting and credit administration practices. The community development and rapid growth of CRE portfolios led to high concentrations that increased the philanthropy. These small bank failures banks’ exposure to the sustained real estate and economic downturn that began have raised questions about the contributing factors in the states with in 2007. GAO’s econometric model revealed that CRE concentrations and the the most failures, including the use of brokered deposits, a funding source carrying higher risk than core possible role of local market conditions deposits, were associated with an increased likelihood of failure for banks across and the application of fair value all states during the period.

    Gladstone and the Bank of England: a Study in Mid-Victorian Finance, 1833-1866

    GLADSTONE AND THE BANK OF ENGLAND: A STUDY IN MID-VICTORIAN FINANCE, 1833-1866 Patricia Caernarv en-Smith, B.A. Thesis Prepared for the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS UNIVERSITY OF NORTH TEXAS May 2007 APPROVED: Denis Paz, Major Professor Adrian Lewis, Committee Member and Chair of the Department of History Laura Stern, Committee Member Sandra L. Terrell, Dean of the Robert B. Toulouse School of Graduate Studies Caernarven-Smith, Patricia. Gladstone and the Bank of England: A Study in Mid- Victorian Finance, 1833-1866. Master of Arts (History), May 2007, 378 pp., 11 tables, bibliography, 275 titles. The topic of this thesis is the confrontations between William Gladstone and the Bank of England. These confrontations have remained a mystery to authors who noted them, but have generally been ignored by others. This thesis demonstrates that Gladstone’s measures taken against the Bank were reasonable, intelligent, and important for the development of nineteenth-century British government finance. To accomplish this task, this thesis refutes the opinions of three twentieth-century authors who have claimed that many of Gladstone’s measures, as well as his reading, were irrational, ridiculous, and impolitic. My primary sources include the Gladstone Diaries, with special attention to a little-used source, Volume 14, the indexes to the Diaries. The day-to-day Diaries and the indexes show how much Gladstone read about financial matters, and suggest that his actions were based to a large extent upon his reading. In addition, I have used Hansard’s Parliamentary Debates and nineteenth-century periodicals and books on banking and finance to understand the political and economic debates of the time.

Commentary German Corporate Culture in the Twenty- First Century: The Interrelation Between the End of Germany, Inc. and Germany's Corporate Capital Gains Tax Reform Benjamin W. Johnson* INTRODUCTION From 1945 until 1989, the world operated in two distinct economic spheres: the Soviet controlled economies and the United States and its allies.' In 1989, the governments of the Soviet bloc began collapsing and the wall dividing the two worlds crumbled. During the 1990's, Europe's economic growth was impressive considering the integration of the two distinct economic systems of the capitalist West and the communist East. Currently, the merging of the Eastern European econo- mies into the larger Western European market is not complete, but the countries have taken Herculean steps in this unprece- dented effort.
  • Regional Financial Disparity in India: Can It Be Measured?

    Regional Financial Disparity in India: Can It Be Measured?

    Journal of Institutional Economics (2021), 17, 836–860 doi:10.1017/S1744137421000291 RESEARCH ARTICLE Regional financial disparity in India: can it be measured? Rashmi U. Arora* and P. B. Anand Faculty of Management, Law & Social Sciences, University of Bradford, Bradford, UK *Corresponding author. Email: [email protected] (Received 25 November 2019; revised 7 April 2021; accepted 8 April 2021) Abstract In this study, we examine disparities in financial development at the regional level in India. The major research questions of the study are: how do we measure the level of financial development at the sub- national level? How unequal is financial development across the states? Does it vary by ownership of financial institutions? To explore these research questions, our study develops a composite banking devel- opment index at the sub-national level for three different bank groups – public, private and foreign for 25 Indian states covering 1996–2015. Our findings suggest that despite reforms, banking development is sig- nificantly higher in the leading high income and more developed regions compared to lagging ones. Furthermore, we find that all bank groups including public banks are concentrated more in the developed regions. Overall, over the years the position of top three and bottom three states in the aggregate banking index have remained unchanged reflecting lop-sidedness of regional development. We also note improve- ment in the ranking of some north-eastern states during the period 2009–15. Key words: Banking development index; financial development; financial inclusion; India JEL codes: D63; G21; O16; O53 1. Introduction Recent discussions on inequality have focused on increasing global income and wealth inequality between individuals, inequality between countries and inequality among different population groups within a country (Atkinson, 2015; Pickety, 2014; Stiglitz, 2013, 2015).
