Subprimes : Deutsche Bank et HSBC visés par une plainte de Blackrock et Pimco

Un groupe d'investisseurs, parmi lesquels les gestionnaires d'actifs Blackrock et Pimco, ont déposé plainte mercredi à New York contre plusieurs banques dont Deutsche Bank. Leur but est de récupérer leurs pertes, raconte le Wall Street Journal.

the capitalist network that runs the world - physics-math - 19 October 2011

An analysis of the relationships between 43,000 transnational corporations has identified a relatively small group of companies, mainly banks, with disproportionate power over the global economy. The study's assumptions have attracted some criticism, but complex systems analysts contacted by New Scientist say it is a unique effort to untangle control in the global economy. Pushing the analysis further, they say, could help to identify ways of making global capitalism more stable.

The idea that a few bankers control a large chunk of the global economy might not seem like news to New York's Occupy Wall Street movement and protesters elsewhere (see photo). But the study, by a trio of complex systems theorists at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich, is the first to go beyond ideology to empirically identify such a network of power. The Zurich team can. The top 50 of the 147 superconnected companies. After Edward Snowden… are core banking systems secure ?

The power and ubiquity behind spyware The US administration – along with governments of other countries – has been using ever more sophisticated methods of data analysis, designed to defend and protect its interests and those of its citizens against foreign cyber attacks and other threats.

After Edward Snowden… are core banking systems secure ?

At least this was the official story, until Edward Snowden, a former US National Security Agency (NSA) contractor, made public a significant volume of hitherto secret intelligence files last month. Mr Snowden’s stunning exposure of US government documents painted a rather different picture of US cyber activity on a global scale, including clandestine surveillance, data and software hijacking as well as aggressive attacks on other states, their critical infrastructure and their economic competitiveness, arguably with the potential – in extremis – to bring down large parts of the world economy. Antonio Maria Costa, ancien directeur de l’Office des Nations Unies contre la drogue et le crime (UNODC) Vince Cable warns against reopening banks debate. Vince Cable, the business secretary, has cautioned against reopening the debate about whether to force banks to break up their high street arms from their investment banking, warning it would create "massive uncertainty".

Vince Cable warns against reopening banks debate

Once one of the strongest proponents of total separation of the banks to avoid the need for another taxpayer bailout, Cable said the independent commission on banking had concluded that ringfencing was the best way to make banks safer. He was responding to a report by a parliamentary commission on banking standards chaired by the Conservative MP Andrew Tyrie, which put full separation of the banks back on the agenda.

The report by Tyrie's commission said the current legislation planned to implement the ringfence fell "well short of what is required". » GEAB N°71 : Mars-juin 2013 – Débranchement de l’homme-malade du monde et dernière phase d’impact de la crise systémique globale.

The Biggest Price-Fixing Scandal Ever

You were right. The players may be a little different, but your basic premise is correct: The world is a rigged game. We found this out in recent months, when a series of related corruption stories spilled out of the financial sector, suggesting the world's largest banks may be fixing the prices of, well, just about everything. You may have heard of the Libor scandal, in which at least three – and perhaps as many as 16 – of the name-brand too-big-to-fail banks have been manipulating global interest rates, in the process messing around with the prices of upward of $500 trillion (that's trillion, with a "t") worth of financial instruments.

That was bad enough, but now Libor may have a twin brother. The Scam Wall Street Learned From the Mafia. The Biggest Price-Fixing Scandal Ever. Matt Taibbi Talks About Criminalized Poverty and Why Wall Street Is Above the Law. Matt Taibbi.

Photo by Robin Holland, courtesy of Random House It's not exactly breaking news that the American criminal justice system is wildly unfair. The war on drugs sends thousands of black and Hispanic kids to prison for using the same illegal substances that their white peers can more often get away with smoking or snorting; meanwhile, the Wall Street bankers responsible for the financial crisis get off with zero punishment and huge bonuses. These gross disparities in how the rich and poor are treated by the police and courts are the subject of The Divide: American Injustice in the Age of the Wealth Gap, a book illustrated by VICE columnist Molly Crabapple and written by Matt Taibbi, the former Rolling Stone investigative journalist who has made a career of lampooning our entitled upper class (and just left that magazine to start a new website about political corruption).
