"Today, anyone can move money freely at will.

The global financial market is unified, creating a fierce competition.

The application of computers is the second driver of change in finance, by allowing a transfer and speed operations. "

Requeijo added that "the third vector of change revolves around the existence of a shadow financial system, composed of investment banks and hedge funds, less regulated than traditional financial systems."

The professor has been highlighted as triggers of the financial crisis, puncture the bubble of risk, appropriate behavior and confidence.

The economist said that the future of the economy is not at all clear, and that globally there is a large debt moratorium, which must be overcome.
