Bankwatch bookmarked on 2008-06-04 banking model utility bank strategy
  • Whether we are talking of investment banking or commercial banking, returns will undoubtedly be lower in future. The only question is how much lower. There is a possibility, if the politicians are in the mood for such a move, that the banking system might even revert to the role of a utility, which is the way things were before the great deregulatory tide began in the 1970s. Not a cheerful prospect for risk-hungry bankers.
