Financial crisis: the big bank heist
Info: Survey magazine presented by Elise Lucet.
It is an unprecedented crisis, with dramatic consequences ... The most prestigious banks are collapsing, causing the global financial markets to fall. An economic earthquake that has not spared French banks.
One after the other, they announce record losses, and their actions plunge. Coming to the rescue, the state had to put its hand in the pocket, with billions, officially, to help them.
But are the banks responsible or victims of the system? Are they as transparent as they claim? And above all, where have the tens of billions of euros in profits that they had garnered in the past five years gone?
Elise Lucet and the reporters of "Exhibit" take you to the heart of the French banking system, its drifts and its best kept secrets.
