Roubini: A Crash Course in the Future of Finance

The following is an hour-long speech Nouriel Roubini recently gave based on his new book Crisis Economics–A Crash Course in the Future of Finance (Penguin Press, 2010). This is probably the most complete framing of the credit crisis by Nouriel you will be able to witness and he starts off comparing the crisis in the United States to emerging market crises over the past decade. It was experience from those crises which helped him understand what is happening in the US today. Enjoy.
