Rendition Supposing Books The Moneychangers

The dry subject of banking,finance and investing becomes very entertaining in Hailey's hands. The president of a bank is dying and there are two contenders to take over from him. One of them plays it fair while the other would resort to any means to achieve his objective.

There are several intriguing subplots,as in most Hailey books. There is the little guy,this time in the form of a bank teller who gets charged with stealing. There is a mid level executive who is crooked enough to want others to take the blame for his crimes.Hailey takes a look at currency and credit card fraud and the involvement of the mafia.

An investment guru offers financial and investment advice. This echoes Hailey's own views and his preference for gold as the best investment to protect against the volatility of financial markets.

Another chapter deals with how rumours can jeopardize the solvency of a bank if most of its depositors feel uncertain enough to want to withdraw their money at once.

All these elements are skilfully combined to create a suspenseful story.This is a novel about greed, corruption and the consequences that follow. This is a top-notch financial thriller, the pace never slackens.

I cannot put down this book, simply a great novel about finance, business, competition, money and thirst of money. A brilliant tale of an inside of a banking world. A good story with the up and down adventure. If you like business, money and somehow interest in banking, you should read this book.

Always been in awe of how detailed the inside workings of the industry Arthur Hailey picks as the basis of his fast paced thrillers - this time being the retail banking industry back in the 70s . The politics, the intrigue and the drama - a regular sleaze potboiler around power and greed. Whilst the drama is regular, you do glean a lot of nuggets of info on counterfeiting and the banking system too.

I am not a Hailey fan, he tends to write overblown pulp trash about industries. This is no different, a 450 page look at the banking industry in the 1970's. In many ways this is typical Hailey. He has a cast of characters so long that it is hard to keep track of them all. They have intersecting story lines, which range from boring to preposterous. Hailey does do something in this book he hadn't done in his previous books that I read (Airport and Wheels), he kept me wondering until the end how he

Not as good as the other books I have read by him, but I gave it an extra star because I happened to be working for Bank of America at the time and a lot of it rang true.

I am somewhat irritated that the villain is an uptightEpiscopalian, but at least Hailey does make him strugglewith his conscience.The book did give interesting insights into the moralissues of American banking about 25 years ago. I was originally led to read it by the opening pageswhich set up an interesting quasi-locked-room back theft, but it was solved early on and became peripheral to the main plot.
