The fall of the ethical bank is a Greek tragedy. The<br />
Co-operative Bank tale is all about a large group of<br />
decision-makers who believed their own hype—and<br />
got it spectacularly wrong.<br />
Journalist Paul Gosling looks at the contribution<br />
those various decision-makers had in the nearcollapse<br />
of the co-operatively-owned bank and looks<br />
at where it went wrong.<br />
The answer is not straightforward, but this book<br />
looks at where the weaknesses originated, such as<br />
an inconsistent business strategy and being just too<br />
nice to challenge crucial decisions.<br />
