Ze pionierden met nieuwe vormen van geldverstrekking, dienog altijd gangbaar zijn. Crises sloegen toe, banken vielen om, reputatieswerden gebroken, speculanten sloegen hun slag of leden zware verliezen.De VOC was in 1602 de eerste multinationale onderneming gebaseerdop aandelenkapitaal, de tulpenbollengekte van 1637 was de eerstespeculatieve bubbel ter wereld. Nederlandse bankiers bedachten eenrevolutionair systeem om slavernijplantages te financieren. Tegenwoordigfaciliteert de Amsterdamse Zuidas het type financieel-juridische dienst–verlening dat van Nederland ’s werelds grootste doorstroomland vankapitaal heeft gemaakt.Van de VOC tot de Zuidas: Gokkers & graaiers vertelt aan de hand vaneen reeks kleurrijke hoofdrolspelers het verhaal van Nederland alsbakermat van het moderne kapitalisme, vol onderbelichte schandalenen schaamteloze streken.Dit is een grondig herziene versie van Grof geld (2011 De Bezige Bij) met zes nieuwe hoofdstukken en zes geschrapte oorspronkelijke hoofdstukken.
