Full Description

This book seeks to draw together a series of theoretical and empirical contributions from several countries including the US, Japan, the UK, and Germany. The chapters differ from a majority of writings on the financial sector in that they are not dominated by economic or finance issues but are concerned with social or sociological implications, conditions and consequence of current charges in financial services.
