2008 Bankspeak and resources

The first issue of 2009 will feature 'Bankspeak of the year' - the most incomprehensible or absurd use of words in a Bank or Fund document or speech. Also, we will present your list of recommended resources - the best of books, reports and articles written about the work of the Bank and Fund in 2008. Suggestions from readers for both features are very welcome.
