Gestion d'entreprise - Investissement et Financement

The subprime crisis in 2007 proved to be a decisive factor in the financial world and triggered a global financial crisis of unimagined proportions. This essay examines the role of asset-backed securities in the 2007/2008 financial crisis, focusing on the triggers and the process that eventually led to the bursting of the US real estate bubble. The paper also provides an overview of how the downturn in the US housing market was triggered and how the United States and the global economy slid into recession.
