Financial crisis equals financial opportunity

The financial crisis has changed the world. We’ve witnessed a turning point in banking history during the last four years, and as Europe’s crisis rumbles on, we’ve yet to see the drama’s final act. Clearly, the era of seemingly never-ending cheap credit from banks is over, and the likelihood is we will never see another. So, what happens to the creditworthy entities and indeed, entire sectors that need to be financed or need help refinancing? If they can’t bank on the banks, who can they rely on?

In this document, we discuss how the deleveraging of banks has created opportunities for institutional investors and the part they can play in financing the UK economy.
