In this episode, Vincent is joined by Jon Ihle, former financial journalist, and Head of Communications at Goodbody to discuss the 'Savings & Loans Crisis' - considered to be one of the worst financial disasters since the Great Depression - which came about as a result of the failure of nearly a third of the 3,234 savings and loan associations in the United States between 1986 and 1995.

Taking Stock is brought to you in association with PwC Ireland.
