《峭壁边缘:拯救世界金融》内容简介:他曾被认为是美国证券界的“鹰派”,他也自称自己的个性继承于一个一个女强人的血脉;他是个雷厉风行的人,向自己喜欢的女人求婚后,8个星期内就闪电结婚;他是个尽职的人,人们称他是不知疲倦的“牛头犬”,一心扑在工作上的他竟然只能以躲在厕所看《周末画报》为一大消遣。他就是中国人的“老相识”亨利?保尔森。从美国财政部长位置上退下来的保尔森,以自己的坦诚和勇气,在回忆录中记下了金融危机期间,那一个个难忘的日夜:辗转反侧难以入眠的时候,他甚至想着服用安眠药;在与议员商讨救市计划时,他几次躲在柱子后面干呕;而为了挽救整个金融体系,他甚至向议长佩洛西下跪。保尔森虽然给人性格强硬的印象,但他也坦承自己在金融危机期间犯下的错误:当雷曼处于生死关头时,他竟然忽视了英国人放弃购买雷曼的警告;他低估了公众对用纳税人的钱救市的愤怒程度;而他推出的一系列救市计划,也常常不是出于详尽的分析,只是出于直觉判断。保尔森就是这么一个人:他执著、强硬但不乏温情;他怨恨华尔街的贪婪却又不遗余力地挽救它们;他信奉自由市场的理念但却又不得不为政府救市计划四处奔波。正如保尔森所说,他拯救的金融世界曾处于峭壁边缘,但幸运的是,倔强的保尔森并没有让金融帝国坠下深渊。Fast-paced and dramatic re-telling of the financial crisis that nearly bought the developed world to its knees. Hank Paulson was without doubt at the absolute epicentre of the recent economic storm, and his account of how he dealt with the greatest financial crisis since the Great Depression will make for absolutely fascinating reading. The book contains all the decisive moments in the economic crisis, including the pivotal meetings with mortgage giants Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, as well as Paulson's personal recollections of and conversations with President Bush, President Obama, Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke and current Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner. As well as detailing the major decisions taken during the height of the crisis, Paulson will also put forth the policies he believes need to be implemented to take us securely into the future. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.点击链接进入中文版: 峭壁边缘:拯救世界金融
