Slow Finance

Thought-provoking and provocative, Slow Finance anticipates a profound change in public attitudes. It outlines how credit growth and globalisation have contributed to the excessive scale of the financial sector. Just as the Slow Food movement represents a reaction to the food industry losing sight of its ultimate purpose, Slow Finance explores how parallel trends will soon be reflected in the investment world. At once think-piece, potted history and call-to-action, the ideas in Slow Finance is an essential read for professionals, academics, business leaders and private investors alike, as well as policy-makers seeking a more sustainable approach to investing. Praise for Slow Finance: 'Before buying or selling another share, investors should read Slow Finance...This well-researched and thought-provoking book is a "must read" for all serious investors, especially during these uncertain times.' Paul Marsh, Emeritus Professor of Finance, London Business School 'Slow Finance raises fundamental questions over the real purpose of savings. Local investment can boost domestic job creation and national growth at a time when we need it most. This book is a real breath of fresh air, since there are better ways to be successful.' Rob Senior, CEO, Saatchi & Saatchi
