Chosen Answer:
The more business you do, the more profit you make and the more bonus you ern.
Fianncial intermediaries in the US such as banks, finance companies, mortgage agencies, wanted to lend maximum and make maximum profit.
The y lent to everyone for real estate pieces, mainly houses.
Its natural to look at the cpability of the borrower to repay. That is his cash flow – from business or employment. If it is good, he will be a prime customer.
When the customer does not have any specific cash flow plans, his repayment could be only out of liquidation of the property bought by him.
Naturally, real estate price always tended to move up.
In the US, DUE TO THE REASON THAT THE DEMAND AND SUPPLY GAP IN HOUSING WAS LESS, THE PRICES DID NOT MOVE AHEAD. Rather, it moved down heavily.
Banks are supposed to mark their assets to market value of the underlying assets. In the above described scenario, they suffered heavily.
