Much bruhaha today about Sir Fred Goodwin et al being dragged before the Treasury committee. Alphaville has a live session for those really enlivened by this.

The other part of the story, the ego, the dictatorship, the craven investors, the hubris of buying ABN. All this is well known. The event will be a sideshow.
Sophocles was writing this story 2600 years ago.
