In 2008 the world experienced financial turmoil. Markets around the world crashed, stock prices plummeted, and major financial institutions, once thought to be invincible, collapsed.
Governments responded quickly, issuing massive bailouts and stimulus packages in an effort to keep the world economy afloat. Although we’ve been told that these drastic measures prevented a total collapse of our system, a growing sense of unease still pervades.
What lies ahead as a result of these bold money printing measures? Was the financial crisis solved or were the problems merely kicked down the road?
End of The Road asks eleven influential commentators within the finance and investment communities to share their knowledge regarding where we are. Through each of their narratives, a story is built which chronicles the current economic dilemma and paints a gloomy picture of our likely financial future.
