This book analyses the connections between the banking industry in Europe and the companies it finances. Ferretti specifically studies how these bonds have evolved over time and questions whether now is the time for a change in the relationship’s dynamics. Chapters discuss the role of bank lending in firms’ financing during the recent financial crisis, as well as issues in credit risk management. The discussion also examines regulatory requirements impacting banks and firms (Basel III) and how they intersect with banks’ internal purposes. Moreover, the book explores how the financial crisis has impacted the relationship between banks and businesses, and seeks to identify the strengths and weaknesses inherent to it. Through this timely discussion, Ferretti looks to the future of the relationship between banks and non-financial organizations to see how they can be revitalised, adapted and reimagined in a post-crisis economy.

La supervision professionnelle est reconnue au sein des institutions comme utile aux professionnels du travail social et de la santé, tant dans leurs fonctions d'aide et de soutien à des tiers, que dans leur vécu institutionnel ou inter-professionnel. Pourtant, depuis quelques années, la complexité croissante du fonctionnement institutionnel, le durcissement des conditions de travail et l'instauration massive de logiques de management ont provoqué l'émergence d'une nouvelle pratique comme alternative à la supervision : l'intervention institutionnelle. Il s'agit d'identifier les changements nécessaires et de les mener à bien. L'intervenant devient un leader qui permet la réalisation des changements indispensables, en étroite collaboration avec les personnes et institutions concernées. Véritable outil de travail, ce livre propose une méthodologie en cinq étapes, et pour chacune de ces étapes une fiche récapitulative ainsi que des exemples concrets. Il s'adresse aux superviseurs et intervenants institutionnels, aux directeurs et responsables d'équipes, aux professionnels de la santé et du social, et aux formateurs. La Haute école de travail social [Institut d'études sociales] souhaite, en le publiant, susciter des débats, des échanges contradictoires et de nouveaux travaux sur cette pratique nouvelle, tant est pressante la question des compatibilités entre ce dont les individus ont besoin pour travailler et les conditions de travail, qui trop souvent, hélas, pervertissent la noblesse des métiers d'aide et de soin.
