Banking for the Common Good
Description
In this program Hazel Henderson discusses the quiet revolution in banking with veteran founder of ShoreBank, Mary Houghton. The shift is away from too-big-to-fail banks still not called to account for the financial crash of 2007-2008. While they are still hobbling future prosperity, there is a shift toward credit unions, community development funds, crowdfunding and reviving publicly-owned state and municipal banks like the 100 year success of the Bank of North Dakota.
