Issues
 What form will regulation of financial sector take?
 What will nonfinancial companies do? M&A or invest
 And how much consumer retrenchment?
 Can political structures cope with large public sector deficits?
 Will global imbalances lead to protectionism. Or will we see
more exchange rate adjustment?
 China is more vulnerable than many realise because it has a
debt problem too
What did banks do?
 Banks would normally be wary of
lending to someone whose liabilities
were fifty times their net assets but
they happily lent to each other on that
basis – until, one day, they stopped

What does not need to happen
 Controls on hedge funds etc
 Limits on bonuses etc
 A ban on naked CDSs etc
 A long-term tax on banks
What does need to happen
 Regulations that enable non-financial
companies, consumers and governments to be
insulated from a financial crisis.
 And there area number of ways to achieve that
 A year ago we proposed separating the utility
function of banks from other activities
 And we still think that is the most reliable way of
succeeding as well as being something that
many in finance should support
But unlikely to happen!
 Likely to see much more messy structures that
will differ across regions. Nothing on a global
scale
Section 2: What will companies do?
Investment or M&A and how much?
What will companies do? The new normal?
 Partial retreat from supply chain dispersion because of rising
transport costs, worries about intellectual property?
 Networks rather than hierarchies?
 More cautious financial sector limits structural changes

Summary
 Balance sheets and debt are at the root of the crisis and
remain an issue for both finance and now governments
 Companies are cash rich and will start to invest and to begin a
new round of M&A soon but will remain cautious for some
time
 Consumers will continue to retrench but in US reform of
lending laws will be critical
 Imbalances are more of a problem with fixed exchange rates
 China may be more vulnerable than many realise and once
again debt could be the issue
