This deepened the contraction in economic activity that had already started in December 2007 and has become known as the Great Recession. Following a sluggish and uneven period of recovery levels of private debt have recently been on the rise again making another financial crisis almost inevitable. This book answers the key question: can anything be done to prevent a new financial crisis or minimize its impact?

It is found that there is a high risk of a new bubble developing there remains a lack of transparency in the financial industry and risk-taking continues to be incentivised among bankers and investors. Proposals are put forward to ameliorate the risks arguing for the need for an international lender of last resort recalling Keynes’ idea for an International Clearing Union.
