Three-Minute Culture

on BBC Two England

Money: Sir Kit McMahon The City used to represent stability: now money hurtles along the switchback of a global economy with the speed of light, as dealers trade millions every second on their computerised screens. Michael Ignatieff explores the throw-away decade through the eyes of six leading players.
In the last programme he talks to Sir Kit McMahon , Chairman of the Midland Bank, who says:
'The real move is towards a three-second culture: it's difficult for institutions to resist the crowd, as the cost of being wrong with the crowd is much less than being wrong alone.'
