Rage of the Risk God: A Reportage of the Lamido Sanusi Banking Reforms
By Ray Echebiri
Rating: 0 out of 5 stars
()
About this ebook
Rage of the Risk God chronicles in the broadest conceptual language, the impact of the catastrophic global economic crisis of 2008/09 on the Nigerian banking industry, and the concomitant regulatory intervention, which had had more than mere tangential effect that as yet is reshaping the industry and the national economy in a way not exactly predictable. It contextualises the motivations, rationale, and the impact of the banking reforms embarked upon by the Central Bank of Nigeria under Mallam Lamido Sanusi, who is fondly referred to as the risk god by his professional colleagues in the banking industry because of his unmatched mastery of risk management.
