Book Cover Quotes: 

 

Mr. England writes about the financial crisis with harrowing precision.

-- Daniel Henninger, deputy editorial page director, columnist, Wall Street Journal

 

First Reckless Endangerment and now it is Black Box Casino's turn to shine a bright light on the root causes of the mortgage meltdown. England, relying on decades of experience as a financial reporter and consummate research skills, documents how government housing policy, political expediency, and crony capitalism combined to cause the mortgage meltdown that nearly sank the world’s economy. 

-- Ed Pinto, former chief risk officer of Fannie Mae


Drawing upon sources not available to previous writers, England presents the most complete account yet of how the collapse of an obscure subprime mortgage lender in January 2007 could eventually take down some of the greatest names on Wall Street by September 2008, wreaking massive economic destruction that Americans are still struggling with today.  

-- Kenneth Cline, managing editor, Banking Strategies Magazine

MortgageOrb Person of the Week: Robert Stowe England

Phil Hall of MortgageOrb.com writes December 13, 2011:

It has been more than three years since the September 2008 financial crisis, and many people are still trying to piece together what went so horribly wrong. Veteran financial journalist Robert Stowe England has offered his insight on what happened with his new book, "Black Box Casino: How Wall Street's Risky Shadow Banking Crashed Global Finance" (published by Praeger). MortgageOrb spoke with England about the circumstances that triggered the economic catastrophe.

Q: Was it possible that the 2008 financial crash could have been avoided? Or was this the financial services equivalent of a runaway train?

England: Both statements are true to some degree. There were so many vulnerabilities building up in the global financial system, it had, indeed, become a runaway train, while most did not yet realize that. Combine that with an ever-rising level of hidden bad credits and hidden bets and exposures, and a bad outcome was assured. In that sense, by 2005 or 2006, it was inevitable that we were headed for a train wreck. It was only a question of just how bad it was going to be.

There is a case to be made that certain actions could have prevented the coming crash from becoming the epic crisis it became. Admittedly, however, suggesting what might have been done to mitigate the expected outcome carries with it all the caveats one must make from hindsight bias.

As I noted in National Review: “A claim made by . . . Pearce, Campbell, and the accounting lobby is that internal-control audits are essential for fraud detection. Yet financial analysts looking at the subprime scandals in Sarbox’s wake have come to the almost opposite conclusion. 

“By requiring resources to be spent on auditing “internal controls” that were trivial for shareholders yet lucrative for auditors — such as employee passwords and possession of office keys — Sarbox Section 404 actually diverted attention away from ensuring accurate reporting of a company’s financial condition.”

Commenting on corporate misstatements during the mortgage bubble, respected analyst Janet Tavakoli had this to say on Sarbox to housing journalist Robert Stowe England in his new book “Black Box Casino”: “Sarbanes-Oxley did nothing. It didn’t work. It was a total waste.”

But who knows? Maybe Sarbox is doing exactly what its champion Jon Corzine wanted it to do!

To the Editor, New York Review of Books

I refer to the review by Jeff Madrick and Frank Partnoy of Reckless Endangerment: How Outsized Ambition, Greed, and Corruption Led to Economic Armageddon by Gretchen Morgenson and Joshua Rosner, who are two friends and colleagues. I also refer to the earlier article by Partnoy and Madrick, "Why Fannie and Freddie Are Not to Blame for the Crisis," July 13, 2011 http://www.nybooks.com/articles/archives/2011/oct/27/did-fannie-cause-disaster/ , as well as other comments supporting these Depression era housing finance agencies.

Partnoy is also a friend and colleague for whom I have great respect. He knows my views on the housing GSEs and their role in enabling the present predicament in the US and around the world. But as I wrote in a review of a new book on this very subject, Black Box Casino: How Wall Street’s Risky Shadow Banking Crashed Global Finance http://www.ritholtz.com/blog/2011/11/72246/ , the housing GSEs and the Wall Street banks are one and the same. Arguing about which did more harm is a frivolous waste of time by some very smart people. 

-- Chris Whalen, Letter to the Editor of the New York Review of Books, November 16, 2011

http://www.rcwhalen.com/pdf/nyrb.pdf

  

 

"A new book by journalist Robert England,  “Black Box Casino,” provides readers with the whole story of the housing disaster, which in turn led to the worst postwar recession ever. England notes that former Freddie executive Leland Brendsel, despite being forced to resign, walked off with $24 million, while Fannie’s Franklin Raines made off with $92 million." 

-- Carolyn Lochhead, "Below the Beltway" blog, San Francisco Chronicle and SF Gate, November 16, 2011

Chris Whalen's Review at The Big Picture:

In his new book Black Box Casino: How Wall Street’s Risky Shadow Banking Crashed Global Finance, Robert Stowe England provides some compelling data and analysis that adds to the collective understanding of the subprime crisis.  Leading analysts such as Barry Ritholtz, Josh Rosner, Gretchen Morgenson and Joe Nocera have been debating whether Washington or Wall Street owns the blame for “causation” in the subprime mess.  England approaches the crisis instead from a functional perspective that begins from the key central fact:  The housing GSEs and the Wall Street banks are one and the same.

"Buy the book"

-- HousingWire Magazine, November 2011

 

Not only did Summers work tirelessly during his years in the Clinton Administration to undermine regulatory and prudential controls in our financial markets, but he joined Fed Chairman Alan Greenspan and his political sponsor, former Treasury Secretary Robert Rubin, and public paragon Arthur Levitt, in smearing CFTC Chairman Brooksley Born so as to make the world safe for OTC derivatives.

“The moratorium was a huge victory for Wall Street,” Robert Stowe England writes in his new book, Black Box Casino.  “And a big win for Rubin, Summers and Greenspan,” though he rightly notes that Levitt later expressed regrets over his actions.  But not Larry Summers, a man for whom ideology has never gotten in the way of the practical necessities at a given moment in time.  He rolls in his own mess, in political terms you understand, and then expects us to believe that it smells so very sweet.  The latest case in point is seen as Summer prescribes solutions to the housing crisis.
