Global Financial Meltdown was a major economic crisis in the recent past. It had devastating
effects throughout the world. A clear understanding of the global financial meltdown is very
necessary as it raised lots of concerns on the contemporary financial system. The complexity
of this crisis event demands a detailed descriptive analysis for its understanding, which cannot
be captured through a mere quantitative study. We have to see this economic crisis from
various perspectives and angles, for which systematic literature review approach is used in
this study and the global financial crisis is taken as an intrinsic case. Taking different
perspectives of various researchers, thinkers and intelligentsia will also help in driving out an
unbiased and factual view of these crises.
The financial meltdown started from subprime crises. Financial derivatives and securitization
were the main elements of the subprime mortgage. Financial derivatives are innovative
financial products, whereas securitization is the process of converting mortgage loans into
tradable securities. The unprecedented volume of derivatives trade and multiple cycles of
securitization within a short span of time caused subprime crises in the USA. Since lots of
financial institutions from various parts of the world have stakes in subprime mortgages,
therefore resonance of subprime crises traveled across the globe. The shrinkage of profits
forced financial institutions for rapid divestitures of investment from stock markets, which
caused a dramatic drop in indices. This scenario destabilized numerous companies and dire
effects of financial sector spilled over to other economic sectors in the various economies of
the world.
