Financial crises are severe disruptions in financial markets that are characterized by sharp declines in asset prices, failures of financial institutions, and significant interruptions in the flow of credit to businesses and consumers. These crises often have widespread economic consequences, leading to recessions and necessitating government intervention to restore stability.

Government intervention refers to the actions taken by a government to influence or directly manage economic or social outcomes, often to correct market failures, redistribute resources, or achieve social welfare objectives. While it can stabilize economies and promote equity, excessive intervention may lead to inefficiencies and reduced incentives for private sector innovation.
