I don't know much about banking, but my understanding of the problem with the American attempt at deregulation was that the banks were allowed to become involved with riskier investments, but at the same time were insured against failure. The banks were partially deregulated.

American and British banks should be given greater latitude in their ability to seize assets. This is war, and the criteria for determining guilt (by association) should be widened.

Have you ever read the money-laundering portions in Part Two (and 3) of "Hear No Evil"?
