  By Fani Kelesidou - April 23, 2013 | Tickers: ALU, SAN, DB

  By Nate Wooley - February 28, 2013 | Tickers: SAN, BAC, DB, JPM

  Starting next year the European Union – less the United Kingdom and a few others – will begin collecting a tax on all financial transactions.

  By Nate Wooley - January 14, 2013 | Tickers: BAC, DB, JPM

  Banks haven't been anyone's favorite companies for a while. The trouble with the world economy has been largely laid at their feet.

• Pinching the Banks a Little More

  By Matt Koppenheffer - November 30, 2012 | Tickers: BCS, DB, GS, NES.DL
