There is no such thing as a safe deposit-taking bank on
its own, even if its assets are of good quality and it has
enough liquid assets to cope with normal variations in
the net flow of deposits and other short-term liabilities.
The events since August 2007, and in particular the
demise of Northern Rock in the United Kingdom and
Bear Stearns in the United States, have made it clear
that any highly leveraged institution with assets that are
mostly long term and illiquid and liabilities that are
mostly short term can be subject to a catastrophic liquidity
shortage.

The reason is that stagnation isn't a financial phenomenon, but an institutional one: it's a product of bad DNA. And so a resolution to the macro crisis demands nothing than less than new DNA across every segment and sector of the economy.

Let's reverse that insight to sharpen it. The striking thing about today's economy isn't that lame, soul-crushing industrial-era business is imploding into a black hole of economic nothingness. That was predictable. Rather, it's that while the so-called value created by, for example, investment banks, is proving to have been largely an illusion, revolutionaries bringing new DNA to the table are able to create authentic, durable, meaningful value.

By radically redefining how economic activities are organized and managed, a new generation of revolutionaries is rediscovering the long-lost art of real value creation. We've discussed many of them: Google, Threadless, Apple, and Zara, to name just a few.
