Summary:
"Doc Zone has traveled the world - from Wall Street to Dubai to China - to investigate The Secret History of the Global Financial Collapse. Meltdown is the story of the bankers who crashed the world, the leaders who struggled to save it and the ordinary families who got crushed."--CBC Learning website.
"Part 1 of this Doc Zone series looks at how greed and recklessness by the titans of Wall Street precipitates the largest financial crash since the Great Depression. It outlines the key triggers in this September 2008 meltdown, including easy lending in the U.S. housing market, the extravagant earnings of business leaders and a complex banking system with few safeguards. It was left to US Treasury Secretary Hank Paulson, himself a former Wall Street banker, to try and avert further disaster." --CBC Learning website.
