A BIS World
The BIS, known informally as the central bankers central bank, was formed in 1930 and for anyone looking to understand how the world of finance impacts the real world a look into the BIS is highly recommended.
For instance, the BIS' own timeline admits that, due to its actions during the course of the second world war, in July 1944 at the Bretton Woods conference that the United Nations agreed to adopt "...Resolution V calling for the liquidation of the BIS at "the earliest possible moment.""
It does not elaborate on why the call to liquidate the bank was so urgent but an ex-bond trader and precious metal analyst recently revealed his research into the matter.
