Finance criticism

Marc Roche describes himself as a "liberal who doubts, disappointed by capitalism". Through his experience as a financial reporter for Le Monde he views himself as a connoisseur of Wall Street and the City. Since the 2008 financial crisis he has published three critical books on capitalism's downward slides.
