The Economic (Not Literary) Offenses of Michael Lewis: The Case of The Big Short and the Global Financial Crisis
Journal of Applied Corporate Finance ( IF 0.7 ) Pub Date : 2020-12-09 , DOI: 10.1111/jacf.12438

In a shameless abuse of editorial prerogative, the editor of this journal uses Lewis's bestseller as a pretext and occasion for presenting his own theory of the cause of the global financial crisis of 2008. After thanking Lewis for his entertaining and informative account of aspects of the mortgage backed securities markets, the author goes on to cite Peter Wallison's “Dissent” to the 900‐page report compiled by the Financial Crisis Inquiry Commission as “the only plausible explanation of the crisis he has encountered.” Wallison's main focus is the debasement of U.S. mortgage underwriting standards in the name of expanded home ownership that was initiated by U.S. law and policy makers, starting with President Clinton in 1992 and carried on by the Bush Administration.

迈克尔·刘易斯(Michael Lewis)的经济(非文学)犯罪:“大空头”案件和全球金融危机

在无耻地滥用编辑特权的情况下,该杂志的编辑以刘易斯的畅销书为借口和场合介绍他自己的2008年全球金融危机原因理论。在抵押贷款支持的证券市场上,作者继续引用彼得·沃里森(Peter Wallison)对金融危机调查委员会编辑的900页报告的“异议”,“这是对他所遇到的危机的唯一合理解释”。Wallison的主要重点是降低美国抵押贷款承销标准,此举是由美国法律和政策制定者发起的以扩大住房拥有量为名的,从1992年克林顿总统开始,由布什政府进行。
