About this product
Product Information
An updated and revised look at the truth behind America's housing and mortgage bubbles In the summer of 2007, the subprime empire that Wall Street had built all came crashing down. On average, fifty lenders a month were going bust-and the people responsible for the crisis included not just unregulated loan brokers and con artists, but also investment bankers and home loan institutions traditionally perceived as completely trustworthy. Chain of Blame chronicles this incredible disaster, with a specific focus on the players who participated in such a fundamentally flawed fiasco. In it, authors Paul Muolo and Mathew Padilla reveal the truth behind how this crisis occurred, including what individuals and institutions were doing during this critical time, and who is ultimately responsible for what happened. Discusses the latest revelations in the housing and mortgage crisis, including the SEC's charging of Angelo Mozilo Two well-regarded financial journalists familiar with the events that have taken place chronicle the crisis in detail, showing what happened as well as what lies ahead Discusses how the world's largest investment banks, homeowners, lenders, credit rating agencies, underwriters, and investors all became entangled in the subprime mess Intriguing and informative, Chain of Blame is a compelling story of greed and avarice, one in which many are responsible, but few are willing to admit their mistakes.

Reviews
" Chain of Blame is one of the first books to delve deeply into the central role that big banks played in the mess...for a juicy, name-dropping read, Muolo and Padilla's book is hard to beat."-- BusinessWeek "Muolo and Padilla examine just who was to blame for the crisis and find that it is not just cowboy operators." (CEO Middle East, September 2008) "...a level-headed book...the anecdotal style is easy-going...much the best book on the mortgage industry". Fund Strategy 1 September 2008 "...a ripping piece of reporting... The authors know their stuff." Bloomberg News Monday 28 July 2008
