The 2008 financial crisis poses three fundamental questions for economists and policy makers; understanding the origins of the crisis, understanding the consequences of this crisis for the world economy, and finally understanding why the 2008 financial crisis is not as serious as the 1929 crisis. The prevailing view is that the 2008 financial crisis was solely the result of inadequate financial regulation together with a very loose monetary policy conducted by central banks, especially the Fed. It is believed that this crisis is a temporary detour in the normal course of the events, so that in the near future capitalist economies will resume the high growth path observed before the crisis. In terms of the third question, there is a widespread view that the fundamental reason that explains the avoidance of the harmful experiences of 1929 was the fiscal and monetary policy expansions in developed countries. No important role is assigned to developing countries in terms of the effects of the financial crisis. This book challenges the prevailing orthodoxy surrounding the origins and the consequences of the 2008 financial crisis. The book demonstrates that measures in addition to a profound change in the financial regulation are required if a new financial crisis is to be avoided in the future, measures include: a change in the conduct of economic policy; a reform of the national and international monetary systems; and a radical change in the pattern of income distribution. This book is essential reading for all interested in macroeconomics, monetary policy, development economics and the global impact of the financial crisis.

The 2007 financial and economic crisis that began in the United States and quickly spread around the world differed from earlier crises in a number of significant ways. This book examines the causes of these events in the US, and their impacts on North America, Europe, Asia and Australia. As with previous crises, real estate booms and busts and excessive financial leverage played key roles; however, the most recent crisis had many unique aspects to it, all of which are explored here in depth. This includes the role played by large international banks, shadow banks, increased global liquidity, population growth and other factors. Collectively, these factors contributed to interconnected economies and financial markets to an extent that never existed before. The net result was the unprecedented ripple effect of the crisis from the US and into the rest of the world. The impact in the US was significantly different than the impact in Canada, Japan, Spain and other countries. Significantly, the global effects of the crisis varied widely from country to country, as did government responses to the crisis. The contributors to this book international academics, bank regulators, and practitioners critique the crises and important international regulatory issues from the point of view of various countries. Academics, regulators, legislators and financial practitioners will do well to add this book to their shelves.

The Financial Crisis Inquiry Report, published by the U.S. Government and the Financial Crisis Inquiry Commission in early 2011, is the official government report on the United States financial collapse and the review of major financial institutions that bankrupted and failed, or would have without help from the government. The commission and the report were implemented after Congress passed an act in 2009 to review and prevent fraudulent activity. The report details, among other things, the periods before, during, and after the crisis, what led up to it, and analyses of subprime mortgage lending, credit expansion and banking policies, the collapse of companies like Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, and the federal bailouts of Lehman and AIG. It also discusses the aftermath of the fallout and our current state. This report should be of interest to anyone concerned about the financial situation in the U.S. and around the world.THE FINANCIAL CRISIS INQUIRY COMMISSION is an independent, bi-partisan, government-appointed panel of 10 people that was created to "examine the causes, domestic and global, of the current financial and economic crisis in the United States." It was established as part of the Fraud Enforcement and Recovery Act of 2009. The commission consisted of private citizens with expertise in economics and finance, banking, housing, market regulation, and consumer protection. They examined and reported on "the collapse of major financial institutions that failed or would have failed if not for exceptional assistance from the government."News Dissector DANNY SCHECHTER is a journalist, blogger and filmmaker. He has been reporting on economic crises since the 1980's when he was with ABC News. His film In Debt We Trust warned of the economic meltdown in 2006. He has since written three books on the subject including Plunder: Investigating Our Economic Calamity (Cosimo Books, 2008), and The Crime Of Our Time: Why Wall Street Is Not Too Big to Jail (Disinfo Books, 2011), a companion to his latest film Plunder The Crime Of Our Time.

The Great Crash of 2020 was not caused by a virus. It was precipitated by the virus, and made worse by the crazed decision of governments around the world to shut down business and travel. But it was caused by economic fragility. The purpose of this collection is to highlight the important work of contemporary Austrian economists on the modern financial system. Although the mainstream financial press has been crediting American, European, and Chinese policymakers with upholding the global economy in the aftermath of 2008, Austrians have long been warning that these very same actions have only set the world up for a larger disaster. Promises in 2008 of the ease of normalizing monetary policy—such as by reducing balance sheets and phasing out market intervention—have been proven to be lies, just as Austrians warned. Authors Include: Ryan McMaken, Daniel Lacalle, Brendan Brown, Thorsten Polleit, Alasdair Macleod, Philipp Bagus, Ronald-Peter Stöferle, Mark J. Valek, Arkadiusz Sieroń, Ronald-Peter Stöferle, Jeff Deist, Joseph T. Salerno, and Claudio Grass.

In The Global Financial Crisis, contributors argue that the complexity of the Global Financial Crisis challenges researchers to offer more comprehensive explanations by extending the scope and range of their traditional investigations. To achieve this, the volume views the financial crisis simultaneously through three different lenses---economic, psychological, and social values.

How the financial crisis really happened, and what it really meant: 3 books packed with lessons for investors and policymakers! These three books offer unsurpassed insight into the causes and implications of the global financial crisis: information every investor and policy-maker needs to prepare for an extraordinarily uncertain future. In Financial Shock, Updated Edition, renowned economist Mark Zandi provides the most concise, lucid account of the economic, political, and regulatory causes of the collapse, plus new insights into the continuing impact of the Obama administration’s policies. Zandi doesn’t just illuminate the roles of mortgage lenders, investment bankers, speculators, regulators, and the Fed: he offers sensible recommendations for preventing the next collapse. In Extreme Money, best-selling author and global finance expert Satyajit Das reveals the spectacular, dangerous money games that are generating increasingly massive bubbles of fake growth, prosperity, and wealth, while endangering the jobs, possessions, and futures of everyone outside finance. Das explains how everything from home mortgages to climate change have become fully financialized… how “voodoo banking” keeps generating massive phony profits even now… and how a new generation of “Masters of the Universe” has come to own the world. Finally, in The Fearful Rise of Markets, top Financial Times global finance journalist John Authers reveals how the first truly global super bubble was inflated, and may now be inflating again. He illuminates the multiple roots of repeated financial crises, presenting a truly global view that avoids both oversimplification and ideology. Most valuable of all, Authers offers realistic solutions: for decision-makers who want to prevent disaster, and investors who want to survive it. From world-renowned leaders and experts, including Dr. Mark Zandi, Satyajit Das, and John Authers

In the early 1930s, in the wake of the stock market crash of 1929 and start of the Great Depression, a U.S. Senate committee investigated the causes of that financial crisis, eventually releasing a report (known colloquially as the Pecora Report, after the committee's aggressive counsel Ferdinand Pecora) that set the standard for candid fact-telling and blunt analysis. The Pecora Report's conclusions led directly to the establishment of the Securities and Exchange Commission and much of the regulatory framework governing the U.S. banking system for the next sixty years. Beginning in the mid-1990s, with the repeal of the Glass-Steagall banking law, and into the first decade of the new century, that regulatory framework was either gutted or ignored, by bankers and regulators alike. The financial meltdown of 2008 was the result--a wholly avoidable, man-made crisis. Such is the first conclusion of the Financial Crisis Inquiry Commission in its Final Report, a 2011 incarnation of the Pecora Report and the most comprehensive accounting to date of the essential facts, causes, and consequences of the 2008 crisis. The Final Report also concludes that the 2008 crisis was caused by "widespread failures in financial regulation and supervision" by government regulators; that "dramatic failures of corporate governance and risk management at many systematically important financial institutions" were also to blame; and that "excessive borrowing, risky investments, and lack of transparency" also played a part. This version of the Financial Crisis Inquiry Commission is not the official, government sanctioned version. That version is officially published by Public Affairs and is available from retailers everywhere. Rather, this version is the COMPLETE REPORT including the dissenting views written and filed by several Republican members of the Commission, including Keith Hennessey, Douglas Holtz-Eakin, Bill Thomas and Peter J. Wallison. These commissioners participated in the hearings and discussions of the Commission, but voted against the final findings and conclusions; their dissenting views are included in this version of the Report. Only time will tell if this Final Report has the lasting regulatory impact of the Pecora Report, or leads to any meaningful legislation or rulemaking whatsoever. But the first step toward solving a problem is to clearly define the problem. And this Report is the clearest definition yet of the causes--and continuing aftershocks and risks--of our most recent financial crisis.

Seminar paper from the year 2015 in the subject Economics - Finance, grade: 1,7, University of Applied Sciences Essen, language: English, abstract: In 2007 the biggest financial crisis after the ‘Great Depression’ of 1939 took place. One theoretical framework explaining financial crises of that kind was envisioned by Hyman P. Minsky (1919-1996) in the latter half of the 20th century and was not considered in this context for a long time. The most prominent part of the theoretical framework, the financial instability hypothesis (FIH), emphasises that “modern capitalist system is prone to bouts of relative instability and financial collapse. When the storm in 2007 broke it was discovered again and the world began to talk about a ‘Minsky moment’. Prominent economics called the theory a required reading and championed it as visionary. Therefore it is no surprise that the book about his FIH was traded at prices over 2000 US$ right after the financial crisis. Until the year 2007 the economic world followed another school of thought. The so-called neoclassic described a world in which financial crises would only occur if ex-ogenous shocks would disturb the self-regulating power of the markets. In detail this is called the efficient market hypothesis (EMH). In addition means this that financial crises caused by systemically reason are not part of the theoretical model. On the contrary, Minsky described a cyclical model which tries to implement loan rela-tionships, financial institutions, financial innovations and uncertainty in the analysis of the modern capitalism. An emphasis lays on the financing structure of different eco-nomic players and the role of financial institutions regarding their influence on the real economy. Minsky’s theory is based on the whole economic cycle and really tries to explain how financial crises are actually caused. Additionally other authors see the thoughts of Minsky as an acknowledged theory regarding financial crises in the past. Although all these factors make the theory interesting for the recent crisis and different economics had called the financial crisis a Minsky moment a huge discussion if the theory is really applicable came up. Further if the theory is really applicable the next question would be which consequences have been drawn in order to prevent another crisis.
