About this ebook

Banking crises have been a recurring challenge throughout history, and each one offers valuable lessons on resilience, regulation, and the importance of sound financial practices. From the Great Depression of the 1930s to the Global Financial Crisis of 2008, these events have exposed weaknesses in financial systems and highlighted the need for stronger safeguards. One key lesson is the importance of regulation and oversight—without proper checks and balances, banks can take excessive risks that jeopardize both their stability and the broader economy. During the 2008 crisis, for example, lax lending practices and a lack of transparency in financial products led to widespread failures and a global recession.
