Abstract
Financial crisis has been the most significant phenomenon to affect the economy over the last two decades. There are at least two characteristic features of financial crises that have been observed recently.

This is due to the financialisation of the economy, understood here as the increasing role of financial motivations, financial markets, financial instruments and financial institutions in the functioning of domestic and international economies.
