Roberto Calvi (13 April 1920 – 17 June 1982) was an Italian banker dubbed "God's Banker" (Italian: Banchiere di Dio) by the press because of his close association with the Holy See. A native of Milan, Calvi was Chairman of Banco Ambrosiano, which collapsed in one of modern Italy's biggest political scandals. His death in London in June 1982 is a source of enduring controversy and was ruled a murder after two coroner's inquests and an independent investigation. In Rome, in June 2007, five people were acquitted of the murder.
Claims have been made that factors in Calvi's death were the Vatican Bank, Banco Ambrosiano's main shareholder; the Mafia, which may have used Banco Ambrosiano for money laundering; and the Propaganda Due or P2 clandestine Masonic Lodge.
Roberto Calvi was the chairman of Italy's second largest private bank, Banco Ambrosiano, when it went bankrupt in 1982. In 1978, the Bank of Italy produced a report on the Banco Ambrosiano, which found that several billion lire had been exported illegally, leading to criminal investigations. In 1981, Calvi was tried, given a four-year suspended sentence and fined $19.8 million for transferring $27 million out of the country in violation of Italian currency laws. He was released on bail pending appeal and kept his position at the bank. During his short spell in jail, he attempted suicide. Calvi's family maintains that he was manipulated by others and was innocent of the crimes attributed to him.
Gerald Leo Posner (born May 20, 1954) is an American investigative journalist and author of twelve books, including Case Closed: Lee Harvey Oswald and the Assassination of JFK (1993), which explores the John F. Kennedy assassination, and Killing the Dream: James Earl Ray and the Assassination of Martin Luther King, Jr. (1998), about the assassination of Martin Luther King, Jr. A plagiarism scandal involving his articles and books arose in 2010. In 2015, the Chicago Tribune called Posner "a merciless pitbull of an investigator."
Posner was born in San Francisco, the only child of Jerry and Gloria Posner, native San Franciscans. His father was a labor union official.
Posner was raised Catholic. He was educated at St. Ignatius College Preparatory and graduated summa cum laude from the University of California, Berkeley in 1975. In 1978, he earned his (J.D. from the University of California, Hastings College of the Law, where he served as the associate executive editor for the university's Law Review.
The history of money concerns the development of means of carrying out transactions involving a physical medium of exchange. Money is any clearly identifiable object of value that is generally accepted as payment for goods and services and repayment of debts within a market or which is legal tender within a country.
Many things have been used as medium of exchange in markets including, for example, livestock and sacks of cereal grain (from which the Shekel is derived) – things directly useful in themselves, but also sometimes merely attractive items such as cowry shells or beads were exchanged for more useful commodities. Precious metals, from which early coins were made, fall into this second category.
Numismatics is the study of money.
In Politics Book 1:9 (c.350 B.C.) the Greek philosopher Aristotle contemplated on the nature of money. He considered that every object has two uses, the first being the original purpose for which the object was designed, and the second possibility is to conceive of the object as an item to sell or barter. The assignment of monetary value to an otherwise insignificant object such as a coin or promissory note arises as people and their trading associate evolve a psychological capacity to place trust in each other and in external authority within barter exchange.

A deeply reported, New York Times bestselling exposé of the money and the clerics-turned-financiers at the heart of the Vatican—the world’s biggest, most powerful religious institution—from an acclaimed journalist with “exhaustive research techniques” (The New York Times). From a master chronicler of legal and financial misconduct, a magnificent investigation nine years in the making, God’s Bankers traces the political intrigue of the Catholic Church in “a meticulous work that cracks wide open the Vatican’s legendary, enabling secrecy” (Kirkus Reviews). Decidedly not about faith, belief in God, or religious doctrine, this book is about the church’s accumulation of wealth and its byzantine financial entanglements across the world. Told through 200 years of prelates, bishops, cardinals, and...

C'era una volta un uomo tranquillo che fece un irresistibile ascesa all'interno della prudente e cattolica banca in cui lavorava fino a portarla ai vertici della finanza internazionale per poi distruggerla dissipando migliaia di miliardi di lire con la complicità di politici ed alti prelati e finì impiccato sotto un ponte a Londra in circostanze mai chiarite. Roberto Calvi, il banchiere di Dio raccontato a Enzo Biagi dalla moglie Clara. Ultimo episodio della serie "Enzo Biagi: c'era una volta.." di Sarah Nicora, Montaggio Andrea Menchicchi.

Anni 70/80: l'inizio della fine della Repubblica come l'avevamo costruita e sognata. Credo, o spero, che ogni italiano conosca la storia che ha costituito le basi del Paese in cui viviamo. Non è una bella storia quella che vede protagonista l'Italia di quegli anni, la mafia sferra i suoi più terribili attacchi a chiunque si metta di traverso sul suo cammino di conquista del potere. Ne faranno le spese rappresentanti delle forze dell'ordine, della magistratura, testimoni e collaboratori di giustizia. Nell'ombra, politici del livello di Andreotti, l'anima nera della "politica" italiana degli anni più spaventosi che gli italiani siano stati costretti a vivere ed a subire. Questo film è la ricostruzione di un'epoca da dimenticare ed ancora scremata da fatti più orribili che contraddistinsero ...

La mattina del 18 giugno del 1982, a Londra, sotto un'arcata del Blackfriars Bridge, sul Tamigi, viene rinvenuto, impiccato, il corpo di un uomo. Tutto lascia pensare ad un suicidio. Ma non un suicidio qualunque... Quell'uomo infatti è Roberto Calvi, presidente del Banco Ambrosiano ed esponete di spicco dell'alta finanza europea. Lo avevano soprannominato il "banchiere di Dio" per i suoi strettissimi rapporti intrattenuti con Monsignor Marcinkus e lo Ior, l'Istituto di Opere Religiose del Vaticano, il forziere della Santa Sede. Il caso viene archiviato, frettolosamente e con disarmante superficialità, come suicidio. Ma lo fu veramente? Sulla sua tragica morte si addensano sinistri sospetti. Perché Roberto Calvi era fuggito improvvisamente in Inghilterra? Cosa sperava di trovare? Chi credev...

Negli ultimi 30 anni di vita italiana il Vaticano ha accumulato un’infinità di segreti e misteri, difficilmente decifrabili.

The Mafia, the Vatican and a secret Masonic society have all been implicated in the murder of 'God's Banker' Roberto Calvi. A passerby on his way to work spotted the 62 year-old financier hanging from London's Blackfriars Bridge at 7.30am on Friday 18 June, 1982. Calvi was suspended from scaffolding above the Thames, an orange rope tied in a lover's knot around his neck. Building bricks had been placed in his pockets to weigh him down along with around £7,500 in cash. At first the City of London police believed his death was a suicide. Three years earlier Calvi, the Chairman of the Catholic Banco Ambrosiano in Milan, had tried to kill himself while in prison awaiting trial for violating Italy's currency laws. Calvi was given a suspended sentence in 1981 and kept his position as Chairm...
