It's like that old joke about two campers woken from their sleep because of a bear. One starts pulling on his shoes and the other says "you're crazy, you'll never outrun a bear", to which the other replies "no, I only have to outrun you".
Same with banking and international economics in many ways - we don't need to have the perfect system, we just have to ensure we have the best of the rest.
