PILOT EPISODE: What happened to the financial crisis? with Vicky Pryce at Echo, Clapham Junction

On September 15th 2008, an investment banking firm named Lehman Brothers filed for bankruptcy, marking the beginning of the worst global financial crisis since The Great Depression. The crisis is not yet over, yet the story of how the system failed has been overwritten by its social and political consequences of the last decade. Leading economist and author Vicky Pryce recounts the moment Lehman Bros fell, and explains the painful journey that western economies have been on since the crash of 2008, and where it leaves them today.Vicky meets Jack at Echo Clapham, London Hosted on Acast.
