As the day begins at First Mercantile American Bank, so do the high-stake risks, the public scandals, and the private affairs. It is the inside world where secret million-dollar deals are made, manipulated, and sweetened with sex by the men and women who play to win. It's a little dated (written around 1975, and just after Watergate), but the underlying principles are still the same - the moving of money, the gold standard, the relationship of the bank managers to the tellers, investigations into wide fraud etc. Hailey is showing his strengths in showing both the wider view, plus the small personal details. There's the security men, the Branch and the Bank Mangers, the tellers and enough background story to explain why they do what they do, and the principles they adhere too (  ) nordie | Apr 18, 2022 | Spannendes und realitätsnahes Buch über eine amerikanische Großbank. Obwohl in den 70er Jahren spielend, könnte man meinen, dass man im Hier und Jetzt ist. (  ) likos77 | Jun 27, 2021 | I read this book a few decades ago. Thought the references to bank technology is dated, the storyline runs true even today. Greedy bank executives and Board vs. social conscious and customer oriented executive VP. Guess who wins, for a change? ( ) writemoves | Jan 30, 2017 | De geldmagnaten biedt de lezer een verbijsterende blik achter de schermen van de bankierswereld. Een wereld waarin geld en egoïsme de hoofdrol spelen, waar cynisme en corruptie hoogtij vieren, waar duistere manipulaties gemeengoed zijn geworden. Adembenemend is de manier waarop Hailey beschrijft hoe financiële instellingen plotseling, op onverklaarbare wijze, ineenstorten en hoe eenvoudig de dollar kan worden vervalst. Sensatie, spanning en romantiek - een boek, kortom om in één adem uit te lezen. Juliette2701 | Apr 4, 2007 | näyttää 5/5 ei arvosteluja | lisää arvostelu

The #1 bestselling author of the blockbuster thrillers Airport and Hotel takes on the world of high finance: "Cliched, lurid and utterly absorbing" (Philip Hensher, The Guardian). Ben Roselli, president of First Mercantile American Bank and grandson of the founder, makes the shocking announcement that he's dying. With no offspring to inherit the company, Roselli knows that executive VPs Roscoe Heyward and Alex Vandervoort are the obvious candidates to succeed him. Heyward, who has been with First Mercantile for two decades, will do whatever it takes to bring in new clients and win the coveted presidency. Vandervoort, a newcomer from the Federal Reserve with a left-wing girlfriend, advocates for a socially responsible plan of growth. And now the discovery of counterfeit cash and credit card fraud threatens the future of the bank itself. From the day-to-day business dealings to the inner sanctums of the money trading center and the boardroom, Hailey's novel is a riveting tale of ambition, greed, and the US banking system.
