Modern money is credit, but must be an exchangeable, ‘depersonalised’ promise – not a two-way deferral like an IOU, or like barter exchange, where I swap my table for your desk. Money is not ‘made’ between two people. It must be created between three parties. No one believes or trusts this promise unless it includes the ‘economic community that guarantees the money’ (Simmel 1990: 177, 182). Money is a threeway relation between the credit and debt relations of the economically active groups, and the central power that enforces these promises, and unifies and issues a currency and outlaws counterfeiting.
Uncertainty seems obvious, so too emotions, yet the finance sector wins. By bringing sociology to the financial world, it seems less a conspiracy than a repetitive game played by officials of a sector that denies the character of money in fragile promises. To me, a proliferation of ‘trust’ organisations attempting to face the unknowable by damaging, even betraying, trust seems to explain the situation better (Pixley 1999). To find out I asked experts and informed sceptics, in elite interviews with finance decision-makers, analysts and commentators in key financial centres over the years.
Its huge debt left its lenders with no ability to control the management (Lowenstein 2000: 214), let alone repossess directors’ homes or send them to prison, unlike credit card defaulters or micro-finance borrowers. LTCM was bailed out by private banks, on the principle if the bank lends me $1000, it’s my problem, if $1 billion, it’s their problem. Securitisation changed all that. Banks freed themselves from rules to maintain the payments system, by selling packages of loans on to ‘investors’, with the caveat emptor escape clause: the buyer’s fault, and – another trick of banks – by putting (hiding) these securitised credit products in off-balance-sheet entities.
