" (Shiller, 6)

It is important to understand that institutional reforms imply providing a robust framework wherein our financial markets and real estate could function. Regardless of how powerful as well as "technologically sophisticated the train is, it is only as good as the track on which it runs." (Shiller, 7) Insurance, regulatory as well as pension institutions are metaphorically the track which carries our real estate and financial markets. However these prevailing institutions dealing with risk-management have become aged as well as unstable. Figuratively, we are 'running bullet trains' on the old tracks. Our policy makers in government as well as in the business need to renovate and remove the rails. The solution in sub-prime relates to institutional reforms: 'the vision to' look over 'short-term fixes' and the guts to embark on reforms at the apex level.
(Shiller, 7-8)

Along with it, there was a decline in consumer spending, fall of the housing market, foreclosure numbers went on rising and the stock market was down. The sub-prime crisis and the ensuing foreclosure have engendered dissension among the lenders, consumers as well as legislators. (Bianco, 2).....
