In her address to the IIEA, renowned economist, Dr Linda Yueh, discusses her new book, The Great Crashes: Lessons from Global Meltdowns and How to Prevent Them. Dr Yueh extracts a three-step framework to help recognise the early signs of an economic crash and mitigate the effects – all with the hope of preventing the worst mistakes of the past from being repeated in the next inevitable financial crisis. She warns about where the next one might come from and shows how her framework could contain it.
