Description
The former FDIC chairwoman, and probably the most first people to recognize the entire risk of subprime loans, offers a unique point of view at the financial crisis.
Appointed by George W. Bush as the chairman of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) in 2006, Sheila Bair witnessed the origins of the financial crisis and in 2008 was—at the side of Hank Paulson, Ben Bernanke, and Timothy Geithner—probably the most key public servants looking to repair the wear and tear to the global economy. Bull by the Horns is her remarkable and refreshingly honest account of that contentious time and the struggle for reform that followed and continues to this present day.
