Over the last quarter of a
century something
fundamental seems to
have changed in the way
in which capitalism works.
The tendency since 1970
has been towards greater
geographical mobility of
capital.
![Page 19: IPA DGov - Ireland, Finance and Social Justice - 10 Jan 2015](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042614/55a57b771a28ab57048b4714/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Rather than being a modest
helper to the capital
accumulation process,
[finance] gradually turned into
a driving force.
Speculative finance became a
kind of secondary engine for
growth given the weakness in
the primary engine, productive
investment.

“Part of the reason people get less giddy
about the Dow than they did five years
ago is that they have learnt a bit about
inequality.
what looks like a recovery, a rally or an
increase in consumer confidence may
just be the effect of elites passing money
among themselves.“
Christopher Caldwell, FT 9 March 2013

Irish Executives in the six
lenders must have been
rubbing their hands with
glee as the State-
sponsored €400 billion
insurance policy covers
commercial, institutional
and interbank deposits,
and investors who have
bought some of their
debt.
The State guarantee
allows the six lenders to
borrow more freely and
more cheaply for short-
term funding that had
become scarce due to
the global credit crunch.
![Page 70: IPA DGov - Ireland, Finance and Social Justice - 10 Jan 2015](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042614/55a57b771a28ab57048b4714/html5/thumbnails/70.jpg)
Mr. Lenihan said on
Tuesday that the
increase on the cap
on deposit
guarantees up to
€100,000 from
€20,000 last month
covered 97 per cent
of customer deposits
so the guarantee has
clearly been included
for the benefit of the
banks rather than the
savers…
![Page 71: IPA DGov - Ireland, Finance and Social Justice - 10 Jan 2015](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042614/55a57b771a28ab57048b4714/html5/thumbnails/71.jpg)
“Denis Casey, chief
executive of Irish Life
and Permanent, said
the guarantee would
allow Permanent
TSB and the other
Irish banks covered
to borrow more
cheaply.
“The oxygen supply
for Irish banks was
being cut off and
healthy banks were
starting to gasp for
breath. This
guarantee turns on
the oxygen supply.”

“Eurostat, the EU Commission’s data agency has calculated the cost of the banking crisis in each EU country. The following focuses on the cost to general government budgets. Ireland has really taken one for Team EU.”
