Editorial Reviews

'The majority of papers in the book are practical guides to specific aspects of dealing with crises. They discuss, inter alia , the principles that should be used in seperating viable from non-viable banks... There are also a number of case studies of systematic crises in particuar countries...Government officials in these countries should keep this volume readily at hand for the next time the sky begins to darken.' - The Financial Regulator
