On the 15 September 2008, Lehman Brothers sparked chaos in the financial markets when it went bankrupt. In the days following Lehman’s demise, Merrill Lynch went on to lose its independence and AIG ran straight into the arms of the Government, further exacerbating what many have called the severest financial crisis since the Great Depression. A year on, it would be difficult to let this month’s edition of M&A Insider be published without reference to the series of events which affected almost every corner of the globe.
However, while the events of September 2008 have been compared to that of October 1929, it does appear that swift government intervention to prop up those ailing financial giants’ balance sheets meant that the plethora of problems which plagued the global economy in the 1930s may have been avoided. Just last month, this publication looked at how various countries are beginning to emerge from the recession. Other positive signs include the news that US house prices have stopped falling and the FTSE 100 index has risen approximately 43% since March and recently closing above the psychologically-important 5,000 mark.
