Based on your research and your knowledge of the current economic environment, forecast economic growth and the direction of interest rates in the following one year and outline a series of recommendations for the Finance Committee to consider to control the effects of the financial crisis and improve current situation (weak economy). Specify which ones you believe would be the most effective. Consider practicality, timeless, cost, time frame and effect of implementation. Recommendations could cover governmental policy or action, monetary policy, regulatory, and private industry.

The Ethics Committee also wants the panel to identify which parties should be investigated for potential ethics violations and the potential role they played that would be considered unethical behavior during the credit crisis. Begin with a definition of ethical standards in business.
