A REVIEW OF THE BAILOUT -- WHAT IS TO BE DONE NOW??
The credit crunch and financial panic of 2008 triggered a remarkable series of government interventions and bailouts, including huge government investments in financial firms and ballooning of the Federal Reserve balance sheet. What have the effects of these massive interventions been and what do they imply for the future? What is 2009, with a new administration and Congress, likely to bring? What should be done or not done? Barry Ritholtz (Fusion IQ), Tim Bitsberger (Bitsberger Consulting), Joshua Rosner (Graham Fisher & Co.), Walker Todd (American Institute for Economic Research), and Christopher Whalen (Institutional Risk Analytics) will comment; Alex J. Pollock (AEI) will moderate
This event is cosponsored by AEI and the Professional Risk Managers’ International Association.
