There's already a book on this: "Other People's Money" (2016) by John Kay. It discusses how most of the modern financial industry is self-dealing, provides no real value to the economy, and is actually parasitical. Here's a short official video introduction to the book: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1kOAS0yzUIQ
