In banks you trust?

Nearly 20 years after the financial crisis, a lot of people trust banks again—and not just because the one in Industry has made its real-life counterparts seem ethical by comparison. According to Gallup:

  • Last year, 63% of people across the 25 countries most affected by the crisis said they had confidence in their financial institutions.
  • That’s up from 40% in 2009. It’s also higher than the 57% of respondents who were confident in banks before the crisis.

In fact, financial institutions now have more trust than national governments, judicial systems, and elections. Gallup did not explain what’s eroding trust in those institutions, but we assume it’s a result of *gestures wildly at everything*.
