But I can't readily think of books that straddle a variety of scams. On that count alone, V. Pattabhi Ram and Sabyasachee Dash have produced a remarkable book, so that citizen angst and government countervailing action is better informed.' -\u003cb\u003eBibek Debroy\u003c\/b\u003e, Economist and Chairman of the Economic Advisory Council to the Prime Minister of India \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e On 24 December 2036, the price of a blue-chip stock, the National Bank of Hindustan, crashes after a leak of the forensic auditors' report. This triggers a series of conversations between Lobin Stephen Senior, one of the senior-most bankers in the country, with his two great-grandchildren.\u003cbr\u003e In an easy conversational style, \u003ci\u003eThe Great Bank Robbery: NPAs, Scams, and the Future of Regulation\u003c\/i\u003e captures the basic functioning of commercial and public sector banks. Vast amounts of public money have vanished from banks over the last few decades, with no remedial measure having been effectively put in place. The victim invariably ends up being the lay Indian citizen.\u003cbr\u003e The book discusses 11 scams that have rocked the nation since Independence. Without sensationalizing the dramatic content, the book examines how the frauds took place: the strategies used by the scamsters, the regulation loopholes they used, and the lasting consequences thereof. It also discusses the role of prime stakeholders in the banking and finance sectors, such as auditors, company boards, the regulator and rating agencies.\u003cbr\u003e A simple but not simplified primer into the world of banking and finance, this book is an engaging and timely discussion directed at the Indian citizen.\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 226\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.63 x 8.5 x 5.5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e February 15, 2023\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52478888378675,"sku":"9789357020541","price":68.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/bjdZQmt4NGZDZG5sZDltVXkvbERUdz09.webp?v=1759665560","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/products\/the-great-bank-robbery-hardcover","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
