Suzan Sabanci Dinçer is all too familiar with banking crises and their devastating effects. A scion of one of Turkey's most famous business dynasties, she is chairwoman of Akbank, the country's biggest privately owned bank. Back in 2001, she lived through a meltdown of the Turkish banking system and a terrifying 9.5% one-year drop in gross domestic product.
