TOP REVIEWS FROM THE GLOBAL FINANCIAL CRISIS
This course was excellent. The short yet crisp lectures have given me a fair perspective of what came before, during and to an extent after the GFC. I feel I will greatly benefit from this knowledge.
I am working on understanding the Global Financial Crisis. This course helped me understand the crisis and the methods used by the Fed to keep the financial system from collapsing.
It is quite detailed. Full of explanation on fundamentals. Quite comprehensive. However, I am looking for a course on Global Financial and Capital markets as these exist today in 2017.
Very interesting, being European myself, I would have liked more on the professors opinion one how the ECB is trying to save the euro, and potential alternative ways to do so (or not).
