Jahrhundert dar und bietet darüber hinaus eine am Beispiel demonstrierte, systematische examine der Verflechtung von Misswirtschaft mit Medien, Staat und Gesellschaft.

Die Phönix Lebensversicherung, mit Sitz in Wien und Kunden in 22 Ländern, wurde im Jahr 1936 zahlungsunfähig. Sie hatte riesige Verluste aufgetürmt, Bilanzen gefälscht und Schlüsselpersonen hofiert. Ihr Sturz drohte eine europaweite Finanzkrise auszulösen und wurde mit diktatorischen Maßnahmen aufgefangen. Das Buch schildert die wirtschaftliche wie politische Rolle des Versicherers vor 1918, während der Weimarer Republik und ab 1933.

Kaum etwas ist wichtiger, als die richtige Versicherung - ein gigantisches Geschäft, von dem im Wesentlichen die Unternehmen profitieren. Die Versicherten dagegen werden schlecht informiert, überversichert und im Schadensfall im Stich gelassen. Statt echter Transparenz überschütten die Unternehmen die Kunden mit irreführenden Informationen: So täuschen sie Verbraucher über tatsächlich geleistete Zahlungen, die Risiken einer Geldanlage oder anfallende Gebühren.
Die Wirtschaftsjournalistin und Branchenkennerin Anja Krüger deckt die skandalösen Praktiken der Versicherer auf. Sie zeigt, weshalb wir leichte Opfer sind und welchen Anteil die Politik daran hat.
