Highlights of this title

Forecasts that US stock markets will decline in 2008 and 2009, and that the rest of the worlds stock markets will be impactedboth because a US stock market decline will trigger sell-offs, and because the US economy is inextricably linked with the rest of the world, through trade, and through dollar-pegged currencies.

Despite competition from alternative instruments, deposits will continue to dominate retail savings and investments portfolios and, in the current climate, opportunities for banks will abound. In the UK, following a slight proportional decline in 2007, deposits will account for half of all retail savings and investments in 2008.

Already, there are indications that there has been some easing of self-imposed restrictions on interbank lending. Astute consumers will take note of these developments and look for opportunities to lock up higher rates.
