"This is a superb book."
--Martin Barber, Director, BAE Syatems Digital Intelligence, Lancashire
"The Principles of Banking is easily the most important text for anyone in banking today and should be required reading for all personal development plans. When I was a regulator at the UK Financial Services Authority, managing the change in control team, I was responsible for assessing and granting regulatory approvals for complex banking transactions, such as Virgin Money's takeover of Northern Rock. I relied heavily on Professor Choudhry's text as a reference throughout the banking license approval process."
--Nihar Mehta, Chief Corporate Development Officer, Monument Bank Ltd, London
"If it has kicked off between you and him, every single one of us would have run down there to help you out! And thanks for this great book."
--Alex Haigh, Captain, Newdigate FC, West Sussex League
"When I taught a banking course at my business school, I had a hard time finding textbooks that could explain what banking was really like from the perspective of a banker, until I came across books by Professor Choudhry. Moorad's books reflect how bankers look at and practice banking, and provide a non-theoretical and practical approach to the subject."
--Ted Teo, Adjunct Assistant Professor, NUS Business School, Singapore
"A magnificent, well-crafted and masterfully updated new edition of the ever popular The Principles of Banking, it remains clear, practical and well balanced. Very highly reccommended!"
--Mohamoud Barre Dualeh, Head of Products and Cards Business, Alizz Islamic Bank, Muscat
