An internationally renowned economist said on Wednesday that banks need to review their banking strategy following the global credit crunch, noting that the world has not yet recovered from the financial crisis.

“One look at banking is that banking is accepting credit and lending money,” said Souhail Elia, chairman of the ABC anti discrimination league in Nevada and chairman of Asian American leadership council for president Obama, speaking before a panel of Beirut’s top bankers and economic experts.
