gptkbp:plotSummary A combination of excessive borrowing, risky investments, and lack of transparency put the financial system on a collision course with crisis
There was a systemic breakdown in accountability and ethics
The crisis was avoidable
Widespread failures in financial regulation and supervision proved devastating
The government was ill prepared for the crisis, and its inconsistent response added to the uncertainty and panic
Dramatic failures of corporate governance and risk management at many systemically important financial institutions were a key cause
