RECONSIDERING BANKING REGULATION AND THE LEGAL FRAMEWORK

In recent years, the absence of an effective international banking regulation system has almost stretched many banks to closing point. In this thoroughly researched and penetrating book, Charles Nforbin Nkongmesah does not compromise with mediocrity. He firmly embraces John Mason’s bestseller; An Enemy Called Average. Mediocrity and no other virus has been the sole cause of poor banking regulations resulting to hair-raising squabbles between banks and their customers, and their final closure. And the author of this treatise fears that markets which are not meticulously regulated might be exposed to a series of risks which may include the manipulation of other market actors, credit risks, fraud, and this can create chaos on economies beyond national frontiers.
