Financialization Of The United States Economy And The Effect On Small Firms And The Consumer, Bradford Christopher Cal Johnson
Financialization Of The United States Economy And The Effect On Small Firms And The Consumer, Bradford Christopher Cal Johnson
Senior Projects Spring 2017
The recent trend of financialization affects small firms and the consumer. It follows the rise of the financial sector and what was in place for the rapid growth of it. The rapid growth of it also creates instability in the economy and the instability is studied to determine where it arose and how it can be reformed. The reform of the financial sector is aimed at suppressing corporate interests to satisfy that of the consumer and protect the small firm. The protection of consumer interest is rationalized in the need for small firms to satisfy consumer demand most efficiently.
