The most recent developments in economy are a clear indicator of many changes, which are a result of this high rate pacing, which also demonstrates as such. Market economy processes occur as a result of intertwining of many potential technological and human factors, thereby creating a system of numerous diver-gences and turbulences. Economics, a social science, is characteri-sed with movements from a system to another system, and is har-monized with elements or components which have impacted the development and application of economic policies as a result. This example can be illustrated with the passing from a commanded system (centralized) to a self-governing (decentrali-zed) system, while the movement from a system to another is known as transi-tion. Such transition in its own nature bears a number of problems of almost any kind (political, economic, social, etc.), and is charac-terised with differences from a country to another.Financial crisis is a phenomenon consisting of a perception of economic policies and creation of an economic and financial stabi-lity in regional and global structures. From this, one may assume that each system has its own changes in its nature, and as a result of these changes, we have the crisis of such a system. Even in the economic field, if we look closely, we have such a problem, where development trends both in human and technological fields have created a large gap between older times and today, thereby crea-ting dynamics with a high intensity of action. If we dwell on the problem, and enter into the financial world, we can see that the so-called industrialized countries have made giant leaps in deve-lopment, while countries in transition have stalled in many fields, as a result of a high rate of corruption and unemployment in these countries, and obviously these indicators are directly connected, thereby stroking the financial system in these countries.Corruption is an element, which directly and indirectly influences the pro-cess of attracting foreign investment, and further influencing the growth of unemployment, and in turn expanding the financial crisis, where finances are already fragile.In the following sections, we will elaborate on the financial crisis in a global aspect, the impacts of this crisis in economic development, and the role of stock exchange in finance, thereby creating a multi-dimensional horizon of the problem.

"Am 17. November 2008 gab die japanische Regierung offiziell bekannt, dass sich die zweitgrößte Volkswirtschaft der Welt nach ihrer bislang längsten Konjunkturerholung der Nachkriegszeit erstmals seit 2001 erneut in einer Rezession befinde. Als Reaktion darauf hat die Regierungskoalition ein 75 Bio. Yen umfassendes Konjunkturpaket aufgelegt. Die globale Finanzkrise, die im Sommer 2007 mit der Subprime-Hypothekenkrise in den USA ihren Anfang nahm, erreichte Japan erst vergleichsweise spät und ließ den Finanzsektor weitgehend unberührt, wirkt sich aber seit Mitte 2008 zusehends verheerend auf die Gesamtwirtschaftslage aus. Das Wirtschaftswachstum fiel im zweiten Quartal drastisch und blieb auch im dritten und vierten Quartal im negativen Bereich. Die grundlegenden Ursachen dieser Entwicklung werden in den vorgeschlagenen Maßnahmen der Regierung nicht hinreichend berücksichtigt, weshalb sie von vielen Beobachtern als verfehlt und kurzsichtig angesehen werden. Während Anfang 2008 die Finanzmärkte weltweit von der US-amerikanischen Immobilienkrise in Mitleidenschaft gezogen worden waren, profitierten die japanischen Finanzinstitute zunächst von den Erfahrungen und Umstrukturierungen seit der Bankenkrise 1997-99. Sie konnten sogar ihre globale Wettbewerbsposition stärken und wichtige Anteile auf dem internationalen Markt erwerben. Nach dem Zusammenbruch der US-Investmentbank Lehman Brothers und der Schwächung der Aktienmärkte gegen Ende 2008 ist allerdings ihr Optimismus geschwunden. Dass die japanische Wirtschaft dann insgesamt wider Erwarten verhältnismäßig stark von den Auswirkungen der Krise getroffen wurde, hat - neben der hohen Bewertung der Landeswährung - im Wesentlichen strukturelle Ursachen, vor allem die starke Abhängigkeit von externer Nachfrage und der eng bemessene Spielraum für fiskal- und geldpolitische Maßnahmen. Diese strukturellen Schwächen sind von der japanischen Regierung seit der 'verlorenen Dekade' in den 1990er Jahren nicht nachhaltig behoben worden. Eine Auflösung des Reformstaus ist in der gegenwärtigen politischen Situation jedoch nicht zu erwarten." (Autorenreferat)

The four articles in this special issue of the Journal of Financial Economic Policy were presented at the tenth biannual joint session of the six worldwide Shadow Financial Regulatory Committees (Asian, Australia-New Zealand, European, Japanese, Latin American, and the United States) in Tokyo on October 26-28, 2013 and again at the annual meeting of the Western Economic Association in Denver, Colorado on June 28, 2014.

Six years after the outbreak of the financial crisis that had shaken the global financial system, experts and analysts all over the world continue discussing the effectiveness, scope and adequacy of mechanisms and measures implemented in the meantime, as well as the adequacy of the underlying theoretical concept. A global consent has been reached on ensuring financial stability through the interaction of monetary, fiscal and prudential policy to ensure the necessary macroprudential dimension of regulatory and supervisory frameworks. The USA crisis spilled over to Europe. Strong support of governments to bail out banks quickly resulted in sovereign debt crises in some peripheral EU Member States. Fiscal insolvency of these countries strongly shook the EU and increased doubts in the monetary union survival. The European Union stood united to defend the euro and responded strongly with a new complex and comprehensive financial stability framework. This supranational framework is a counterpart to the global financial stability framework created by the G20 member countries. Starting from the specific features of the monetary policy whose capacities are determined by euroisation, available instruments and resources for preventive supervisory activities, as well as the role of the government in crisis management, Montenegro created a framework for maintaining financial stability and prescribed fostering and maintaining financial stability as the main objective of the Central Bank of Montenegro.

Did the financial crisis of 2008 and the subsequent recession rearrange the basic structures of the global economy? To answer that fundamental question, the authors of Exploring the Global Financial Crisis tackle a number of related questions: What has happened, for example, to global flows of people, goods, and capital? Will the euro and the dollar persist as global currencies? Can governments that bailed out failing banks by vastly expanding public debt manage to regain solvency, and at what political cost? Ranging across regions, and from the factors that gave birth to the crisis to current politico-economic rivalries, the authors present both mainstream and critical views on the central issues involved
