Second Open Lecture credit crisis: how will the financial crisis end, and can it happen again?

The second speaker in the open lecture series on the credit crisis was prof.dr. Harry Garretsen of the Faculty of Economics and Business. After the first lecture by prof.dr. Elmer Sterken, in his lecture Harry Garretsen answered questions like: is the current banking crisis also a financial crisis? What lessons can we draw from earlier crises? How will this financial crisis end, and can it happen again in the future?
After the presentation there was time for discussion and to ask questions.
