Six years have elapsed since the financial crisis struck the world; unfortunately, even today, we could strongly feel its ramifications across various industries and segments. Investment analysts make great forecasts about the market movements. However, many of them proved to be utterly incorrect causing significant losses to the investors. So, there is an urgent need to re-look at the accuracy of the tools and techniques being used in market forecasts. Another surprising phenomenon is that, barring a few, many economists could not forecast the onset of the ‘financial turmoil’, suggest precautionary and preventive measures in order to avoid financial crisis /unexpected havoc to the system which includes ‘Blackswans’. Nextly, mounting debt levels (high leverage) of banks and financial institutions have proved to be yet another serious issue being faced by them which contributed to the global economic crisis. So, the hard lessons one can learn is that the debt levels of companies, banks & financial institutions should be kept at prudent levels. Last but not the least, economists and investors strongly feel that complex financial products do not help to woo investors; nor would it help gaining their confidence.
