Superhubs

How the Financial Elite and Their Networks Rule Our World

By: Sandra Navidi

Narrated by: Catherine Fenton

One of Bloomberg's best books, 2016

$uperhubs is a rare, behind-the-scenes look at how the world's most powerful titans, the superhubs, pull the levers of our global financial system. Combining insider's knowledge with principles of network science, Sandra Navidi offers a startling new perspective on how superhubs build their powerful networks and how their decisions impact all our lives. $uperhubs reveals what happens at the exclusive, invitation-only platforms - the World Economic Forum in Davos, the meetings of the International Monetary Fund, think-tank gatherings, and exclusive galas.

This is the most vivid portrait to date of the global elite: the bank CEOs, fund managers, billionaire financiers, and politicians who, through their interlocking relationships and collective influence are transforming our increasingly fragile financial system, economy, and society.

Extremely underwhelming. Getting fed old leftovers in this book

Extremely underwhelming. Getting fed old leftovers in this book. It’s just not worth the time.

Sleight of hand

As one who observed with shocked disbelief at the impunity of the financial elite for decades, I was greatly enlightened by this book at how they pull it off. The author, using masterful double speak, reveals how human nature and systems result in the monopolization of power by one super-clique such that they loot the public and exonerate themselves at the same time. All the while, the author appears to speak admiringly of the wielders of finance as she lays bare bare how, in plain sight, they rob the world of its assets through simple collusion.

The big controllers

This is a very informative book. It open my eyes to who is really running this world. The tell me how big money and bankers and politicians intertwined To rule this world.

Big info and panorama if you don't know this

Yawn. It is too remedial for me. But I have been studying these personalities, institutions and modes of thought for years. If I hadn't, I would think of this as a terrific first tour of it all.

Excellent book

The writing is excellent and the background the author gives on the major players of the financial world was very interesting.

The narration is excellent also and all worth your time
