December 1, 2008 — BusinessWeek judges the University of Virginia's McIntire School of Commerce to be in a "virtual dead heat" with University of Pennsylvania's Wharton School as the best undergraduate business school in the country. U.Va.'s separate graduate business school, the Darden School of Business, is also highly ranked. Together they have more than a dozen faculty who are regularly featured in national and international media discussing the financial crisis, from problems with the bailout strategy to global capital flows and America's low savings rate, to lessons from past financial crises. They are listed below by areas of expertise.
Big-picture and history of financial crises and bailouts
• Robert F. Bruner
Dean of the Darden School of Business, University of Virginia
Distinguished Professor of Business Administration
434-924-7481 (office)
BrunerR@virginia.edu
Blog: www.darden.edu/html/deansblog.aspx
Author of seven books and an expert in several areas of finance, including financial crises and mergers and acquisitions, Bruner has been widely quoted in the past three years. Major media seek him out for stories about the current financial crises. He often provides big-picture lessons and historical context, drawing on his recent book, "The Panic of 1907: Lessons Learned from the Market's Perfect Storm," which examines a financial crisis that bears remarkable similarity to today's turbulence. Among the lessons: "the current crisis overshadows previous crises in four key ways: complexity, inflexibility, speed and scale."

Savings, thrift, consumption tax
• Ronald Wilcox
Professor of Business Administration
wilcoxr@darden.virginia.edu
434-243-5558
Blog: http://usthrift.wordpress.com/
A former economist for the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, Wilcox often speaks to the media in connection with his recent (and timely) book, "Whatever Happened to Thrift: Why Americans Don't Save and What to Do about It." As he explains in his book and his blog, there are a number of measures that could make it easier for people to save, from helping the smallest companies offer 401(k) plans (and opt employees into them by default) to replacing the income tax with a consumption tax. America's debt addiction is partly a byproduct of American optimism, explains Wilcox, but it is exacerbating the current economic downturn.

He previously practiced corporate law in New York City and clerked for U.S. Supreme Court Justice Thurgood Marshall.

Web site: http://commerce.virginia.edu/faculty_research/staff_directory/DeMong.html
DeMong is an expert on mortgages (prime, subprime, etc.), bank investment strategies, equity valuation and financial management of private companies. Published papers include "Mortgage Pricing Is Based on Risk" and "Prepayment Fees Lead to Lower Interest Rates." As a free market advocate, in 2004 he testified before Congress against assignee liability laws, which would have allowed home mortgage borrowers to sue anyone holding paper on their loan, from the originators who sold it to them to the Wall Street investment bankers who ultimately funded it. Supporters contest that such laws would have put the brakes on subprime lending.

He has been critical of recent closed-door regulation changes by Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson that let healthy banks buy weak ones and take big tax write-offs for the weak banks' losses. He offers even-handed, pragmatic analysis on the pros and cons of various tax reform proposals.
