Learner Reviews & Feedback for The Global Financial Crisis by Yale University

Great overview! The details and figures were sufficient to explain what happened without confusing people who might not know a lot about economics and finance

Very useful in order to understand all the mechanisms of the Global Financial Crisis. Need to be related to the new book of Ben Bernanke "The Courage to Act".

Interesting and topical, from people who were in the thick of things and don't pull punches. The camerawork leaves a bit to be desired, but not the content.

Very insightful and useful, particularly for someone whose limited knowledge and time to read papers and books about global financial crisis in 2007-2008.

Good explanation of the background of the crisis, and the impact on U.S. and E.U. as well. I never understood the term "shadow banking" before; now I do.

A very good and structured course on the Global Financial Crisis. This course is a must need for all as it is very easily explained by the Lecturers.

Very well constructed course matertial with enough detail and data though not to make it tedious, just wonder if there is way to shorten the length?

very structured course, you learn something above and beyond the financial crisis - you learn something about the whole financial system.
