The global financial crisis, brewing for a while, really started to show its effects in the middle of 2008. Around the world stock markets have fallen, large financial institutions have collapsed or been bought out, and governments in even the wealthiest nations have had to come up with rescue packages to bail out their financial systems.
On the one hand many people are concerned that those responsible for the financial problems are the ones being bailed out, while on the other hand, a global financial meltdown will affect the livelihoods of almost everyone in an increasingly inter-connected world. The problem could have been avoided, if ideologues supporting the current economics models weren’t so vocal, influential and inconsiderate of others’ viewpoints and concerns.
This presentation provides an overview of the crisis with links for further, more detailed, coverage at the end.

Financial markets transfer funds from people who have excess available funds to people who have a shortage.
They promote grater economic efficiency by channeling funds from people who do not have a productive use for them to those who do.
Well functioning financial markets are a key factor in producing economic growth, where as, poor functioning financial markets are a major reason many countries in the world remain poor.
Financial Markets
A security or financial instrument is a claim on the issuer’s future income or assets.
A bond is a debt security (IOU) that promises to make payments periodically for a specified period of time.
The bond market is especially important economic activity because it enables businesses and the government to borrow and finance their activities and because it is where interest rates are determined.
An interest rate is the cost of borrowing money or the price to rent (use someone else’s) funds.
Because different interest rates tend to move in unison, economist frequently lump interest rates together and refer to the “interest rate”.
Interest rates are important on a number of levels:
High interest rates retard borrowing
High interest rates induce saving.
Lower interest rates induce borrowing
Lower Interest rates retard saving
Information Asymmetry and Information costs
Why Financial Intermediaries
In the neo-classical world economists have argued financial intermediaries are not necessary. Savers (investors) could manage their risks through diversification.
The logic rests on the perfect market assumption – that is investors can always through their own borrowing and lending compose their portfolios as they see fit, without costs. In such a world there are no bankruptcy costs.
In such a world if taken to the extreme, perfect and complete markets imply that there is no need for financial institutions to intermediate in the financial (capital markets) as every investor (saver) has complete information and can contract with the market at the same terms as banks. E.g. Information Asymmetry
Why Financial Intermediaries Bonds
A common stock (usually called stock) represents a share of ownership in a corporation.
It is usually a security that is a claim on the earnings and assets of the corporation.
Issuing stock and selling it to the public (called a public offering) is a way for corporations to raise the funds to finance their activities.
The stock market is the most widely followed financial market in almost every country that has one – that is why it is generally called the market – here “Wall Street.”
The stock market is also an important factor in business investment decisions, because the price of shares affects the amount of funds that can be raised by selling newly issued stock to finance investment spending. (Note impact examples..
Bonds tend to have less risk than stocks, but at the cost of less return. However, a proper use of certain kinds of bonds may temper the risk of your overall portfolio using diversification.

An Intro to the Financial Services IndustryEric Tachibana
The Financial Service Industry is one of the most attractive industries to target if you are a consultant.

US Economic Outlook - Being Decided - M Capital Group August 2021.pdfpchutichetpong
The U.S. economy is continuing its impressive recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic and not slowing down despite re-occurring bumps. The U.S. savings rate reached its highest ever recorded level at 34% in April 2020 and Americans seem ready to spend. The sectors that had been hurt the most by the pandemic specifically reduced consumer spending, like retail, leisure, hospitality, and travel, are now experiencing massive growth in revenue and job openings.
Could this growth lead to a “Roaring Twenties”? As quickly as the U.S. economy contracted, experiencing a 9.1% drop in economic output relative to the business cycle in Q2 2020, the largest in recorded history, it has rebounded beyond expectations. This surprising growth seems to be fueled by the U.S. government’s aggressive fiscal and monetary policies, and an increase in consumer spending as mobility restrictions are lifted. Unemployment rates between June 2020 and June 2021 decreased by 5.2%, while the demand for labor is increasing, coupled with increasing wages to incentivize Americans to rejoin the labor force. Schools and businesses are expected to fully reopen soon. In parallel, vaccination rates across the country and the world continue to rise, with full vaccination rates of 50% and 14.8% respectively.
However, it is not completely smooth sailing from here. According to M Capital Group, the main risks that threaten the continued growth of the U.S. economy are inflation, unsettled trade relations, and another wave of Covid-19 mutations that could shut down the world again. Have we learned from the past year of COVID-19 and adapted our economy accordingly?
“In order for the U.S. economy to continue growing, whether there is another wave or not, the U.S. needs to focus on diversifying supply chains, supporting business investment, and maintaining consumer spending,” says Grace Feeley, a research analyst at M Capital Group.
While the economic indicators are positive, the risks are coming closer to manifesting and threatening such growth. The new variants spreading throughout the world, Delta, Lambda, and Gamma, are vaccine-resistant and muddy the predictions made about the economy and health of the country. These variants bring back the feeling of uncertainty that has wreaked havoc not only on the stock market but the mindset of people around the world. MCG provides unique insight on how to mitigate these risks to possibly ensure a bright economic future.

18. Mortgage Backed Security (MBS) Source: http://www.urbandigs.com/2007/08/how_mortgage_backed_securities.html STEP 1 - A pool of mortgages are owned by a bank or lender. They are grouped into categories by credit risk including subprime, alt-a (between subprime and prime), and prime. STEP 2 - The pool of mortgages are packaged into a mortgage backed security. STEP 3 - The mortgage backed security is then sliced and diced into different classes with varying maturities (called tranches). Each tranche offers varying degrees of risk to the investor. The first loan to default will be placed into the Junk tranche while the strongest loans receive the highest credit rating of 'AAA' and are placed at the top of the tranche division. As with any asset associated with risk, the highest risk tranche receives the highest rate of return or yield while the lowest risk (AAA rated) will receive the lowest yield. STEP 4 - The tranches are then resold to investors who are willing to take on the varying degrees of risk and maturities.
26. Details : Private Sub-prime mortgage process 1. Brokers identify borrowers 2. Originator and broker identify a loan for borrower after looking at his credit rating 3. Formal application for loan by borrower 4. Originator transfers the loan to the subsidiary of an investment banking firm ( Seller) 5. Seller(Investment bank) collects a pool of loans and call it as SPE/SIV/SPV. Off balance sheet instrument 6. SPV can be a corporation, partnership or limited liability company. Most often a Trust. It has nothing else except mortgage loans 7. Underwriter purchases all the securities (derivative income streams) 8. In designing SPV and its tranches underwriter works with credit rating agencies 9. Underwriter then sells the securities to the investors 10. High rated tranches might be guaranteed by a 3rd party insurance company 11. Seller also arranges to sell the rights to service the loan pool to a company or sometimes Originator takes these rights 12. MERS – document custodian.
