The Incredible Banker by Ravi SubramanianMy rating: 3 of 5 stars
Another banking related book by an ex-banker. The book begins with a Naxalite blowing up a bus in a remote part of India. This is followed by a call from the Governor of RBI to to a CEO of a Global Bank in India. The CEO is issued a show cause notice.
The book then jumps back and forth between the two incidents and the author depicts why the CEO gave the show cause to the CEO. The protagonist is an ambitious banker who wishes to climb higher and higher in the banking corporate. He cuts a few corners in the process and this lands him in a soup that he never expects to find himself in.
In the narration he touches upon the typical political atmosphere of a private bank. It depicts how people put down others so that they can go up the corporate ladder.
In the process the author also depicts how the press jumps to conclusion.
A good read. The author has given a twist in the end, but the impact of the twist is minimal.
