Just as Thomas Piketty offered a sweeping critique and progressive reassessment of capitalism, former World Bank Group chief financial officer Bertrand Badré looks at the destructive role finance played in the global economic crisis of 2007–2008 and offers a bold prescription for making it a force for good. Badré says that finance is inherently neither good nor bad. It's just a tool—the most powerful tool on earth. Used correctly, it can be at the heart of the way we address many of the world's biggest problems, ranging from climate change to the eradication of poverty to building much-needed infrastructure. He describes innovations in financial tools and approaches that are already happening around the world and looks at the role regulation can play in channeling the power of finance in a positive direction. He details options for strengthening international cooperation for financial stability and prosperity and overcoming the blinkered nationalism currently on the rise. And he tells what is working and what needs to change in financing the sustainable development of the world.

Politik und Geldpolitik in Europa haben sich von den Grundsätzen verabschiedet, die in der Vergangenheit die Garanten des Erfolgs für den Kontinent waren. Die Finanzkrise und ihre nicht enden wollenden Nachbeben verleiten eine verunsicherte und überforderte Elite an den Schaltstellen der Macht dazu, ihr Heil in Staatsplanung, Intervention und Bürokratie zu suchen. Allen voran entzieht sich die Geldpolitik von Mario Draghi als Chef der Europäischen Zentralbank jeglicher Kontrolle. Auf dem Weg der Eurorettung ist sie zur ungebremsten Staatsfinanzierung degeneriert.
