What will be an ideal response?

ANSWER

The shadow banking system had become an important source of liquidity in the global economy prior to the crisis. The discovery that collateral was worth far less than it had seemed caused a dramatic reduction in credit everywhere. While central banks and governments sought primarily to aid their own economies, the effectiveness of their interventions was increased by the demonstration that no single economy would be expected to bear alone the burden of restoring liquidity and reducing uncertainty. Rather, the recovery of each economy would be supported by the containment of financial collapse and the recovery of aggregate demand in all affected economies.
