It's strange how Patrick, one of my favorite writers in the tech business, is stating a lot of his anedoctal experiences as fact. I've been in banking longer than he was, I think (15 years in my case) and a lot of what he says isn't true for many institutions out there. The overall view is somewhat accurate - there are such issues in a Bank, usually stemming from how big they are, but details are not necessary what is being described. Take the article with a grain of salt.
