We need to deal with household debt now before the next financial crisis hits.
LSE Business Review.
What will happen to indebted households when the next recession hits Europe?

Sooner or later a recession will arrive and with already near zero level interest rates the means to fight it are more limited than they were after the economic collapse of 2008.
