Explanation:

The great recession was a period of economic crisis that began in 2007 and lasted for 18 months. This period was characterized by a global economic environment that began during an international financial crisis precipitated by the bankruptcy of the traditional US investment bank Lehman Brothers, founded in 1850. In domino effect, other large financial institutions collapsed, in the process also known as " subprime crisis ".

To avert a collapse, the US government re-privatized the 1968 Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac real estate credit agencies, which will be under government control indefinitely, pumping $ 200 billion into both agencies, considered the largest bailout already made by the US government.
