voxeu.org, 12 April 2012
"Don't put all your eggs in one basket" is standard financial advice. This column, co-written by Charles Goodhart (FMG, LSE), says that financial regulators are violating that principle. It argues that financial institutions have become too similar to each other, making financial crises more likely. It proposes a regulatory approach based on relative stock market correlations that would encourage greater diversity in the financial system.
