... any Governor of the Bank of England would have had to live with the fact that regulatory and supervisory responsibilities had been stripped from the Bank of England when it became operationally independent for monetary policy in June 1997. Eddie George strongly opposed this decision. Any Governor would have had to work with the dysfunctional Tripartite Arrangement for financial stability between the UK Treasury, the Bank of England and the FSA - the brain child of Gordon Brown and his advisers. Any Governor would have had to cope with a deposit insurance scheme that did not work and with the complete absence of a Special Resolution Regime for dealing with near-insolvent banks.
On ne saurait mieux dire. Gordo, celui qui se déchaîne contre le paradis fiscal helvète (bien secondé il est vrai par son homologue français), oubliant au passage l'île de Man et autres joyaux antillais de la couronne, entrera dans l'histoire, espérons-le, comme l'un des plus piètres chancelier de sa majesté.
