The Banking Industry Today: Lessons Learned, Lessons Forgotten

After each financial crisis, bankers resolve never to repeat their mistakes. They vow to rein in excessive risk-taking and take actions to better align the interests of internal stakeholders (executives, "rainmakers", risk officers, etc.) with those of external stakeholders (customers, investors, regulators). Sounds great! So what happened?
