Rezensionen
"...an intriguing methodology to spot pre-crisis warning signs...some practical solutions..."
"offers a practical guide for all major participants in a financial crisis... the book draws helpful lessons from the numerous financial crises of the past two decades, including U.S. domestic experience. It usefully reminds readers that crises provide opportunities for shedding out-of-date practices - and for making money - as well as impose economic costs."
"...an intriguing methodology to spot pre-crisis warning signs...practical solutions as to how companies and countries can best deal with financial crashes..."
"very popular in German banking circles at the moment. It deals with the warning signals relating to financial crises, the momentum associated with them, and ways of dealing with them... [It] provides a riveting insider report on system crises in newly industrialized countries and financial difficulties in the banking sectors of G7 states."
"a hefty chuck of valuable intelligence that deserves the hours of serious study it demands of a reader. The authors offer general observations on past crises, then provide detailed analyses on strategies that succeeded and failed in the past. They focus on the performance of individual company managers and pepper the book with lists of dos and don'ts."
"The timing of this book couldn't be better. As political crises continue to escalate globally, financial crises will likely follow. And companies need all the help they can get."
"The authors...cite five boundary conditions that are changing in times of crisis.... The five "degrees of freedom" in volatility are: regulatory regimes; competitive landscape; customer behavior; organizational capacity for change; and social values. It is the ability of managers to grasp the impact of these changes, prompted by the crisis, and then turn them into opportunities that leads to many successful stories of companies highlighted in the book."
"Critics rate the book highly, noting while many books discuss financial crises and their ramifications, none has presented an action plan for managing them. The book presents a method that allows executives and financial professionals to recognize the warning signs and act appropriately before the situation gets out of hand...also details best practices that help corporations weather crises."
"highly readable and actually a quick read...a management toolkit, with all the tools neatly arranged and ready on hand when the need arises. On an unlit, stormy night when the manager's company suffers a flat tire, that manager would surely wish he'd bought this handy-dandy toolkit."
"Dangerous Markets concludes that financial crises like the one that swept Asia have become more frequent in the past decade or so and will become more frequent as developing economies enter the global economy... "So what should managers and investors do if they see signs of an imminent crisis? The authors point to companies that have prospered in the past by seeing crisis as an opportunity to gain on less well-prepared competitors.... What these examples have in common is that managers took advantage of the situations rather than adopting a defensive posture to crisis conditions."
