His book opens with the most withering critique you will ever read, of the moral collapse of the Australian Banking and Financial Advice industries as examined by the Haynes Royal Commission.

Kohler shines a spotlight on the industries culture of greed, systemic failures and the lack of regulation in the public interest.

It closes with Kohler's quick look into the future covering everything form Drones, the role of women in finance, to the public interest and ethical investing.

Kohler is a realist, but his fascination for the finance world gives the book real energy.
