Book Summary

Rajan argues that the financial crisis was not merely the result of a few reckless bankers but stemmed from fundamental imbalances and systemic flaws. He identifies three primary "fault lines" that contributed to the crisis:

Income Inequality in the United States: Rajan highlights the growing disparity between the rich and the poor in the U.S., which led to increased political pressure to provide easy credit to lower-income households. This, in turn, resulted in risky lending practices and the proliferation of subprime mortgages
