The invasion curtailed hopes of stabilising Afghanistan, by drawing away attention, resources and troops. Liberal interventionism was badly discredited. It strengthened and emboldened Iran. It hastened the end of the brief unipolar moment and undercut visions of a rules-based global order. The refugee flows produced by regional instability, along with IS-led or -inspired attacks in Europe, contributed to growing ethno-nationalism and fueled support for Brexit.

Money raised from shareholders is called capital, and banks have far less of it than other kinds of companies. If, for example, banks were required to raise 20% of funding from shareholders, that would still be well below the norm for other kinds of companies but enough that it might have covered Silicon Valley Bank´s losses and saved the bank. Banks should be required to raise more money from shareholders, who have a strong incentive to keep an eye on the way that money is used, since they can lose all of it. They are allowed to borrow most of the money they use from lenders and depositors. Policymakers also need to recognize the limits of government oversight as a substitute for market discipline.
