This article aims at investigating the impact of the level of the Fed funds rate in the United States in the period 2000-2007 on the emergence of the asset price bubble on the US real estate market, burst of which triggered the financial crisis in the US and globally. Rather than constructing a single theoretical or empirical model of this potential influence, a more eclectic approach is taken. The argument is structured around three fundamental questions (1) whether the Fed funds rate had been low compared to benchmarks in the given period; (2) whether low short-term rate itself had been able inflate a real estate bubble; (3) whether alternative explanations of the bubble causes were sufficient. For each of the issues a number of qualitative explanations and quantitative models is provided and analysed. Based on the gathered data, models, and arguments, the paper concludes that the influence of the Fed funds rate on the bubble’s emergence is not to be underestimated. This conclusion should be kept in mind in the context of future directions for monetary policy in the US and globally, as the extremely low interest rates applied by central banks to date might be inflating the next bubble.

The objective of the paper is to analyse the influence of information about economic and financial problems of strategic shareholders upon the market value of commercial banks operating in the Polish banking sector. The analysis included fourteen such cases from the years 2007-2014. The results clearly indicate that investors consider the foundations of the operation of commercial banks in Poland to be very solid. Problems of strategic shareholders led to only slight depreciation of the banks’ securities quoted at the Warsaw Stock Exchange in the period directly after publication of the information. Investors decided that problems of parent companies were unlikely to threaten the stability of banks operating in the Polish banking sector.

This article is divided into four sections. In the first one, we describe the origin and history of investment banking, with particular focus on the economic conditions that led to its birth in the United States. The second part considers those products offered by investments banks which are available to Polish entrepreneurs and individual clients willing to introduce their financial resources to the capital market. In the fourth, and last, section of the present article, we look at those areas of investment banking which stand a chance to flourish in the aftermath of the crisis. In this last section, we also touch on matters of international scope, which is necessitated by the fact that specialist (i.e. separate from domestic universal banking) investment banking in Poland is the preserve of foreign investment banks and their Polish branches.

The subprime crisis limited the investment activities of economic entities. The manifestation of the crisis was the decrease in the quantity and value of cross-border consolidation processes. These trends were especially visible in the developed countries. The main reasons for the reduction of mergers and acquisitions were the restrictions of  access to external capital due to the collapse of stock markets, banks crash, the decline of private equity activity and decrease of the financial health of businesses as well as market pessimism. In addition to reduction and therefore cancellation of several mergers and acquisitions, these factors forced certain actions upon the consolidating companies. Among other things, they led to restructuring activities aimed at reducing costs. They also contributed to a number of divestments.Since the second half of 2009, there has been a noticeable improvement of the financial situation of enterprises, as well as of general economic indicators (GDP). However, these phenomena are still accompanied by unregulated financial markets situation, inter alia, concerning the regulation limiting the emergence of financial crises, including relation to the activities of private equity funds. Therefore, it is difficult to determine whether the period of crisis in relation to transactions of consolidation is over, and if we can talk about recovery in the course of these processes.
