Eye of the Storm

A very accurate and sobering account of the causes and events leading to the current financial and economic crisis. Stephan Olajide rightly concludes that “considering all major factors that have driven the boom period, the cost is likely to exceed anything we have experienced in recorded history”.
A book every responsible citizen should read!
Dr. Marc Faber, Editor of GBD, author of „Tomorrow’s Gold“

Eye of the Storm will enable anyone to understand what happened…. Shocking but essential reading.
Chris Roberts, Fund manager.

“In a breathtaking tour d’horizon on the current financial crisis, Stephan (Olajide-Huesler) ties it all together and translates it into everyday language: From the power of leverage, the deceptively simple theory on the functioning of financial markets, to erroneous concepts of risk, the flow of international capital and the role of (central) banks and asymmetric incentive systems – everything conspired neatly to create the biggest financial crisis in living memory. Going beyond the simplistic explanation and comments prevalent these days, “Eye of the Storm” is a must-read not only for policy makers but also for anybody keen to understand how we got where we are now and to be able to grasp the implication of the seismic shift in the domestic and international political and financial landscape.”
Christoph Bianchet, Asset Manager

An exceptional book on the background of the financial crisis and the possibly dramatic future scenarios. Stephan Olajide- Huesler describes with authority and clarity the causes and fatal mechanisms of the past 30 years and shows possible solutions. To be recommended for everyone who wants to know what actually happened.
Andre Schenker, Economist.

Eye of the Storm is an excellent book on the current financial crisis. This is the story of how special interests misused a dubious theory to overturn common sense. If you want to understand how an erroneous belief system almost destroyed the global financial system you need to read this book.
The US government can go bankrupt. This book explains how and what needs to be done to stop it.
Russell Napier, author of “Anatomy of the Bear”.

Stephan has shown exceptional foresight and true generosity in sharing. I am so excited to recommend this book to those who are serious in understanding the current financial crisis in a very easy-to-follow way.
