BUSINESS AND SOCIETY The reason for the occurrence of the 2008 financial crises was due to the rapid growth of unchecked derivatives at the time. From 2004 to 2006, the Federal Reserve began increasing the rates of the fed fund, and many individuals who had received money from the bank had interest-only loans. Demand for real estate decreased as interest rates continued to rise, and as prices of houses declined, people who had borrowed found it challenging to pay. Banks, on the other hand, had multiple derivatives that they found hard to sell as their worth was declining. Later, banks refused to give money to other banks since they were fearful of piling up other derivatives, which resulted in the 2008 financial crises. The financial crises led to banks losing money on loans they had given out, lending out of cash between banks stopped, and banks refused to lend to other businesses. Banks and hedge funds are to be supervised to maintain the amount of leverage used by such financial institutions, and also, the government should intervene during such…

In other words, various policies and business qualifications could prevent small and medium-sized business organizations from successfully entering the highly competitive market. For instance, the tax and regulatory charges are usually higher than the expectations of these organizations. In the long run, this economy faces various challenges, thereby limiting the potential employment opportunities that could arise from small start-up enterprises.
