• The Basel II Solution to Sub-Prime and Related Financial Planning (Part 1) - Editor, 1 February 2008 - No Comments yet

The cataclysmic effects of the sub-prime crisis of 2007 need not have happened at all. Since the retirement financial planning of large numbers of families is at stake, and since so many stocks of the financial sector have been disastrously affected, the Basel norms that US banks have declined to implement for years, needs a detailed and public review. Ask groups of people whose financial planning and stock portfolios have been buffeted by the sub-prime crisis, if they are aware of the safeguards provided by the Basel norms. Ask your banker if his or her employer is Basel II compliant. You will quickly discover that banks and regulators have taken unconscionable risks with your money.

The US Federal Reserve is party to this mess because it waited all the way until November 2007 before even getting banks to agree to adhere to the Basel II norms.
