#FinancialStability

In times of economic uncertainty, the very mechanisms designed to prevent financial chaos can often trigger unease. Such is the case addressed in a recent report by The Times, where the financial markets are experiencing significant turmoil characterized by erratic price movements, scarce information, and an overarching sense of uncertainty. Historically, we’ve witnessed similar patterns, from localized disruptions like the Liz Truss gilts confusion in 2022 to global existential threats such as the banking crisis of 2008 and the cash scramble panic in 2020. These events serve as reminders of the fragility and interconnectedness of financial systems worldwide.
