Obama-administrasjonen vurderer nasjonalisering

by: Adam Smith jr. Sunday, January 25th, 2009

Obamas perspektiv på støtte til bankene skiller seg relativt klart og kanskje til og med dramatisk fra den filosofien som lå til grunn for Bushs økonomiske politikk. New York Times skriver i dag at Obama-administrasjonen vurderer nasjonalisering av banker som trenger støtte som en av flere muligheter:

Privately, most members of the Obama economic team concede that the rapid deterioration of the country’s biggest banks, notably Bank of America and Citigroup, is bound to require far larger investments of taxpayer money, atop the more than $300 billion of taxpayer money already poured into those two financial institutions and hundreds of others.

But if hundreds of billions of dollars of new investment is needed to shore up those banks, and perhaps their competitors, what do taxpayers get in return? And how do the risks escalate as government’s role expands from a few bailouts to control over a vast portion of the financial sector of the world’s largest economy?
