NSCS 19TH

Welcome to the 19th North Star Communicating Salon, the first one in 2009!

Topic: An Overview of Current Financial Crisis

Abstract: The seminar basically presents an overview of the global financial crisis and its associated economic impacts. First I show you the possible causes that have led to the financial crisis with an emphasis on the sub-prime mortgage market. The following looks at the direct consequences and economic impacts related to it. The last discusses the actions and possible solutions that have been taken (or can be taken) to minimize the impacts and to rebuild the economy locally and globally. The seminar is informative, not research-originated, and based on reviews.
