ECONOMIC Collapse & the WORLD DEBT CRISIS 2007 - 2013 Subscribe here for more on the GLOBAL ECONOMIC CRISIS: http://www.youtube.com/user/CapitalWatch?feature=mhee 2007--2013 global financial crisis, is considered by many economists to be the worst financial crisis since the Great Depression of the 1930s. It resulted in the threat of total collapse from large financial institutions, the bailout of banks by national governments, and downturns in stock markets around the world. In many areas, the housing market also suffered, resulting in evictions, foreclosures and prolonged unemployment. The crisis played a significant role in the failure of key businesses, declines in consumer wealth estimated in trillions of US dollars, and a downturn in economic activity leading to the 2008--2012 global recession and contributing to the European sovereign-debt crisis. The active phase of the crisis, which manifested as a liquidity crisis, can be dated from August 7, 2007 when a French bank with an auxiliary headquarters in the U.K. terminated withdrawals from 3 hedge funds citing "a complete evaporation of liquidity." The bursting of the U.S. housing bubble, which peaked in 2006, caused the values of securities tied to U.S. real estate pricing to plummet, damaging financial institutions globally.The financial crisis was triggered by a complex interplay of the overvaluation of bundled sub-prime mortgages, questionable trading practices on behalf of both buyers and sellers, and a lack of adequate capital holdings from banks and insurance companies to back the financial commitments they were making. Questions regarding bank solvency, declines in credit availability and damaged investor confidence had an impact on global stock markets, where securities suffered large losses during 2008 and early 2009. Economies worldwide slowed during this period, as credit tightened and international trade declined. Governments and central banks responded with unprecedented fiscal stimulus, monetary policy expansion and institutional bailouts. Although there have been aftershocks, the financial crisis itself ended sometime between late-2008 and mid-2009. In the U.S., Congress passed the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009. In the E.U., the U.K. responded with austerity measures of spending cuts and tax increases without export growth and it has since slid into a double-dip recession tags Capital watch 2012 capitalism financial economic crisis economists funds money bank bankers federal reserve Europe up usa western world third seconds first worst depression 1990's institution government welfare benefits dole dosh cash dollar pound unemployment records downturn stock market exchange credit card loan mortgage markets trading import export conspiracy poverty poor rich tax taxes cost of living present business crash bail out bonuses Economy Business Freedom debt commodity price inflation forex currency trading fx currency trading euro converter exchange euros money currency currency rate currency converters money rate currency credit credit consolidation credit credit the capital card credit creditcard debit how do i get a credit report credit history report debit card credit rating investment capital capital investment free credit report credit line capital mortgage financial news cibc mortgage rates obama mortgage relief mortgage protection stock exchange what is apr online gold trading forex gold gold trade trade gold gold mine price of silver gold future gold funds keiser max kaiser forex investment investment forex online investment account bank how to investment funds bonds savings investments invest mutual fund mutual funds commodities hedge fund investment banking property investment investment banks
