Fixing the System

Description

Focusing on the 2012 banking industry scandal that took down banking legend Bob Diamond, bank bosses, regulators and politicians address how the balance of power has finally started to shift away from the masters of the universe. Ironically, this game-changing crisis erupted over the widespread rigging of an obscure rate-setting mechanism, Libor, rather than over the tumult of the financial crash. Former Barclays chairman Marcus Agius, RBS boss Sir Philip Hampton, deputy governor of the Bank of England Andrew Bailey and Jean-Claude Trichet examine what we want from our bankers, and whether we can trust them again.
