Raghuram Rajan: An economist with a difference (1140 words) |
 | Raghuram G Rajan, Professor of Finance at the Graduate School of Business, University of Chicago, is the first person of Indian origin chosen by the International Monetary Fund as its chief economist. |
| Rajan and Zingales are of the view that finance should be made more accessible to talented individuals who are not well off rather than be cornered by small, entrenched and affluent groups. |
| Rajan and his co-author argue that the biggest danger to capitalism comes not from "fire-spewing trade union leaders" but from well-heeled executives in pin-striped suits who publicly praise the virtues of free enterprise capitalism but try their level best to suppress competitive markets. |
