ABSTRACT

This research is an attempt to explore the fiscal and financial crisis in the Eurozone and measures for improvements in order to avoid the occurrence of an Asian-type crisis. The crises in the Eurozone were initiated due to the crisis in the United States. The basic impact of the crisis was to the exposure of the systems of national finance to the toxic assets in the United States, regardless of the situations of their balance of payments. For example, the crisis initially affects Germany, which reported a surplus in the current account in comparison to the other Eurozone economies that showed current account deficits but with lesser exposure to the assets of the United States. This research has adopted both primary and second methods of research. For the qualitative part of this research interviews have been conducted with individual from Canary Wharf. The secondary part of the research has been fulfilled by incorporating the literature from the past researches. The results of this research study have shown that financial crisis in the Eurozone economies have taken in to consideration the management of risk and has challenged most of the myths for instance the presumption that the governments have in a developed economy so that it does not default. For the insurers, this issue is beyond the default risks and the changes in the assets values on the financial statements. It also has an impact in the quantification of the liabilities and for the purpose of determining the solvency and the positions of economic capital.
