My del.icio.us bookmarks for March 26th

These are my links for March 26th:

FT.com / Columnists / John Kay - More regulation will not prevent next crisis - Amazing - the banker’s apologists are still arguing that there’s no place for regulation in the face of their abuse

FT.com Willem Buiter�s Maverecon Moral hazard, here we come! - Bera Stearn bail out just replicates all the problems that gave rise to it

3i turns its back on investment in start-ups Business The Guardian - Looks like we’re back to the days when venture capital was called Slater Walker.

Accountants urge non-doms to splash out - Accountancy Age - It’s very hard to credit that people are this stupid. But apparently they are.

Fund group moves base from UK to Dublin - Accountancy Age - I trained with Gareth Pearce, Chairman of Smith & Williamson. I recall him being a bit of a lefty in those days. Times change. People change. Not always for the better.

Fears over stamp duty crackdown - Accountancy Age - What’s the fear? Only that people might have to pay the tax that the law asks of them. What is so frightening about that?
