The importance and the role of banks in the financial activity are indisputable. Particularly in times of crises, it is the conscience of governments, of businesses, and of society as a whole that the stability and proper function of the banks are the sine qua non for dealing with the causes and the consequences of a crisis. It is indicative that during the recent crisis, which was manifested in the years 2008-2009, most of the governments in the world rushed to support their banking systems, expending critical social resources.
The present book offers a picture of the banking system and its operations, as well as of the current developments, such as euro's introduction, the Basle/Nyborg agreement, the buyouts and the mergers.
