The Swiss Federal Institute (SFI) in Zurich released a study
entitled “The Network of Global Corporate Control” that proves a small
consortiums of corporations – mainly banks – run the world. A mere 147
corporations which form a “super entity” have control 40% of the world’s
wealth; which is the real economy. These mega-corporations are at the
center of the global economy. The banks found to be most influential
include:
• Barclays
• Goldman Sachs
• JPMorgan Chase & Co
• Vanguard Group
• UBS
• Deutsche Bank
• Bank of New York Melon Corp
• Morgan Stanley
• Bank of America Corp
• Société Générale
However as the connections to the controlling groups are networked
throughout the world, they become the catalyst for global financial
collapse.
James Glattfelder, complex systems theorist at the SFI explains: “In
effect, less than one per cent of the companies were able to control 40
per cent of the entire network.”
Using mathematic models normally applied to natural systems, the
researchers analyzed the world’s economy. Their data was taken from
Orbis 2007, a database which lists 37 million corporations and
investors. The evidence showed that the world’s largest corporations are
interconnected to all other companies and their professional decisions
affect all markets across the globe.-[Full Article]
