Bankers read books, too!

Spreads, yields, capital adequacy ratios, and RAROC will only get you so far. Literature can take you anywhere. You will not find books about credit management, investment strategy, or the FX market here. But you will find a Swedish banker's simple yet honest thoughts on books and literature. If you notice that this banker needs your help to understand some piece of literature, feel free to help.

About me

This Banker
Economist, social anthropologist, factivist and connaisseur of fine dinos. Instead of reading books like I would listen to music, I try to read them like I would play music.
