Welcome to the second instalment in our series of Financial Services podcasts. In this programme we take an in-depth look at how financial institutions are coping in a market no longer awash with capital.
A year ago the market was awash with capital and record-breaking deals were becoming routine, but the sub-prime mortgage crisis has resulted in companies writing down their capital. In this programme we'll be examining whether the crisis is as bad as the media are making out, whether there are alternative ways to raise capital and how best to rationalise your assets.
