This dissertation was written to fulfill the graduation requirements of the MSc in Banking
& Finance at the International Hellenic University. I was engaged in studying,
researching, concerning and writing this dissertation from June to December 2022.
The aim of the dissertation is to analyze the economic background that led to the burst
of Great Recession, the most recent and one of the greatest influence financial crises in
the world history. Its duration and its impact in US are of great importance as well as
how US economic plunge spread out in a flash to Europe and the whole world. The
burning question is whether Great Recession is over or its implications are still present.
As Great Recession provoked an avalanche in the global financial and political scenery
with deep consequences in different type of economies, it is of great importance to
discuss and conceive its impact worldwide in order to understand how different fiscal
models function as well as how interconnected economies are all over the world. We
study, theoretically and empirically, the backbone, the chronicle as well as the global
severe implications of Great Recession through extensive bibliographic research,
documentaries that include interviews of economists that played major roles that time,
economic books and articles, surveys and graph analysis.
