Sheila Dow

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Sheila Christina Dow (born April 16, 1949 ) is a British professor of economics at the University of Stirling . Dow studies the methodology of economics and the theory of financial and monetary policy. She was an economist at the Bank of England and advises the UK Treasury.

Dow criticizes the traditional view that banks would act in the interests of their customers if the customer's interests were also the most rewarding for them: financial incentives for moral behavior. However, according to Dow, banks have a significant information advantage over their customers, so that customers cannot assess the risks they are taking. She suggests expanding cooperative banks in which closer customer relationships are structurally anchored.
