Securitization played a big role in this because of how risky the regulations are and the giant corporate companies that are truly fluctuating and controlling the market. At the peak of the financial crisis new specialized mortgage lenders and securitizers came along unrestricted by government regulations which resulted in an extreme number of foreclosures and the stock market to plummet.

A financial history well known for centuries’, financial institutes and analytical agencies all over the world spent millions dollars each year to research and prevent economic problems such as recession, inflation and the worst one, worldwide crisis. The United States has the strongest economy in the world with the well-developed financial sector and probably the strongest analytical center. However, it was not enough to prevent a financial crisis in 2008. For the last decades US economy consistently increased housing price on the market thus by the end of 2005 early 2006 prices reached the highest point ever in US history which pushed default rates up. Within few months’ price boom was over and US economy slightly turn over toward long term mortgage crisis which coincided with national recession between 2007-2009 and aggravated the situation. There were many causes of the crisis such as shortcomings of financial institutions, political situation in the country and so on, but there are only three main proximate causes, the mortgage crisis in US was triggered by house bubble on the property market, unsustainable risk increase and unstable system in financial sector.
Although linked to the "Made in USA" identified, the financial crisis has not stopped in any country in the world. The financial crisis and economic slowdown in the US spread globally through linkages both financially and commercially. Seen in US housing prices soar, foreign banks looking for opportunities to invest in the US housing market, such as through the CMO by the investment banks.

Within the financial crisis of 2007, the U.S economy took a turn for the worst. The unemployment rate shot up to 10%(cbpp.org), and as a result there was less money within the economy for: goods, services, and this essay’s key topic; housing. As a result of this economic situation, there was a significant increase in the amount of houses being foreclosed upon. This was mostly caused by the owners of said houses taking out risky high interest loans, because of bad credit, while also being within financially troubled times. The risky and high interest loans caused a chain reaction that resulted in these people defaulting on their payments when “trigger events”, caused by or worsened by the financial crisis, occurred. It is now 2014, and many of the people who defaulted on their mortgage and had to foreclose are now starting to look towards the housing market again. However, they must be able to protect themselves from the problems that caused them retreat from the housing market in the first place.

The most commonly known sub-prime finance crisis came into illumination when a sudden rise in home foreclosures in 2006 twirled seemingly out of control in 2007, triggering a nationwide economic crisis that went worldwide within the year. The greatest responsibility is pointed at the lenders who created such problems. It was the lenders who, at the end of the day, lend finances to citizens with poor credit and a high risk of failure to pay. When the Feds inundated the markets with growing capital liquidity, its purpose was not only to lesser interest rates but it also largely low risk premiums as shareholders sought after dangerous opportunities to strengthen their investment profits. At that point of time, lenders found themselves loaded with capital for lending out and higher willingness to undertake higher risks in a surge to get greater investment returns. To triumph over of the financial unsteadiness and housing price bubbles, Federal Reserve has to intervene to combat these issues.

This chapter is about the background of 2007-2008 financial crisis. The 2007-2008 financial crisis has a huge impact on US banking system and how the banks operate and how they are regulated after the financial turmoil. This financial crisis started with difficulty of rolling over asset backed commercial papers in the summer of 2007 due to uncertainty on the liquidity of mortgage backed securities and questions about the soundness of banks and non-bank financial institutes when interest rate continued to go up at a faster pace since 2004.
