not a diversified work output. The aggressive hiring of minorities to match the bank’s customers perfectly reflects the Access-and-Legitimacy paradigm. This strategy was undoubtedly an important one for the bank as more African-American middle class families moved into the neighborhood. The bank needed to offer the “similar-to-me” environment in order to attract and retain customers. The disadvantage with this paradigm is that an employee’s true potential could easily be overlooked. Their…

When you accept professional advice on how to invest, save, and grow your hard-earned money, you have certain expectations from your financial advisor: expertise, professionalism, ethics, and independent, sound financial advice. If you're not working with a Fee-Only Financial Advisor, you may not be getting what you bargained for. Why? According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, in 2008 there were over 208,000 financial advisors in the United States, with that number expected to rise to…
future? You already know that being a credit union member is different than being the customer of a bank. You also know that it’s not just about semantics, members of credit unions OWN those credit unions. And that’s a whole different story from banks, where customers not only don’t own it (just a few shareholders pocketing all the profits, but more on that in a moment), sometimes it even feels like the bank kind of owns YOU!

While, technically, all purchases made by credit card create a debt to the user, these debts…
recommending financial reforms, and despite limits to its powers that include not being empowered to set interest caps on lending rates, the agency has arbitrarily recommended a 36 APR limit. Knowledgeable experts in finance--including those of the major banks--insist that this limit is impractical and unprofitable for companies that want to offer short-term or payday-type loans. If this kind of lending becomes unprofitable or is simply banned, what might…
a rating system based on Professor Corcoran’s thoughts I would say that banks becoming greedy was the main reason for the crisis. The banks rolled the dice to “raise their leverage levels to unprecedented highs, based on the premise that higher leverage necessarily improved returns” ("Systemic Risk," 2009, p. 2). The second reason is that the global financial government had too many moving parts. This…
