In sharp contrast, the Institute of International Finance, the leading trade association for the world s top banks, believes that the impact of higher capital requirements could be far stronger. The IIF believes that GDP could be fully 5 lower after five years, with unemployment more than 7 higher.

Possibly the biggest prize in aligning private and public sector development efforts lies in the relatively unexplored area of blended finance. We have barely scratched the surface in integrating the efforts of development finance institutions (DFIs) with private and philanthropic initiatives, which could make the whole greater than the sum of its parts.

LONDON In his Pulitzer Prize winning book, Lords of Finance, the economist Liaquat Ahamad tells the story of how four central bankers, driven by staunch adherence to the gold standard, broke the world and triggered the Great Depression. Today s central bankers largely share a new conventional wisdom about the benefits of loose monetary policy.

The answers to these questions cannot be found by discussing sound finance, public or private, for they reside firmly in the realm of power politics. Debt is creditor power and, as Greece has learned the hard way, unsustainable debt turns the creditor into Leviathan.

For example, the Institute for International Finance, a preeminent Washington, DC based lobbying group for large banks, consistently argues bail us out, or else face the consequences. But, just as important as their storyline is their political power, which has risen greatly in recent years to the point that all major policymakers in the US and Europe cater to banks fortunes even when there are no wider implications for the economy.

We saw an example of it the last time there were massive government interventions in US financial markets namely, during the Great Depression. In 1932, the Fed was unwilling to help stabilize a collapsing banking system.
