The book "Strategy and Organization of Corporate Banking" offers a comprehensive analysis of the strategic and organizational aspects of corporate banking. In recent decades, financial literature has heavily focused on asset pricing and the formal modeling of incentive systems, while the business and operational aspects of banking have taken a back seat. This work by Professor De Laurentis and his co-authors represents an innovative return to these topics and sheds light on the dynamic developments in the banking industry that have gained importance in recent years. In particular, in the bank-based financial systems of continental Europe, such as in Italy, France, and Germany, banking plays a crucial role in the national economy. The book provides both empirical and theoretical perspectives that emphasize the importance of strong banks for the stability and growth of economies.
