Aperçu
There’s something rotten at the core of the global financial system, and it looks a lot like Iceland.

Iceland is often singled out as an example of a country that expertly handled its response to the 2008 financial crisis. After all, it punished more CEOs and politicians for their roles in the crash than any other country. But the story is far more complicated than it seems on the surface, as financial expert Jared Bibler explains in this insider account. Although white-collar criminal investigations don’t always make for exciting stories, Bibler does a first-rate job of crafting a dramatic, easy-to-follow narrative of events, making this a compelling read for anyone interested in understanding the legacy of 2008.
