A study of bank-loan failures during the Florida land-boom of the mid-1920s. The author shows that, despite official disclaimers and previous historical accounts, virtually every bank failure that occurred involved massive insider abuses, a conscious conspiracy to defraud - or both.
Normal0falsefalsefalseEN-USX-NONEX-NONEMicrosoftInternetExplorer4Raymond Vickers, whose background includes a law degree, a Ph.D. in history, and four years as assistant comptroller of Florida (which made him Chief of Staff of the Florida Department of Banking and Finance) is uniquely qualified to provide a thorough disclosure of the Florida banking debacle of the 1920s. His long-term research and successful lawsuits designed to force the disclosure of sealed records have brought him to the attention of such major media outlets as the "Washington Post" and the "WallStreet Journal, " in which Vickers said: "I haven't found a single bank failure that didn't involve a conscious conspiracy to defraud.""
