Slideshow: Year 2011 in Financial Comic Review

By EconMatters

We took some of the best comic illustrations and made them into a slideshow to share some holiday humor. (h/t Dr. Mike Haywood’s Banking Crisis Digest)

The slideshow highlights the following 2011 major global financial themes (in our view):

• A recession that does not want to go away
• Taxpayer bailouts and trillions of dollars in secret loans has turned Too Big to Fail into Too Big To Collect and prosecute.
• MF Global rocked the financial world with its reckless leveraged risk-taking and outright ‘mishandling’ of clients’ money
• Euro debt crisis that could bring about another round of global financial and banking crisis.
• But New Year always brings new hope …..

Cheers,
