The paper looks at the role played by derivatives, particularly credit default swaps (CDS), in the global financial crisis. The significance of this role is explained identifying political and financial roots of derivatives markets’ deregulation. The paper argues that it was not the derivatives that caused the global financial crisis, but rather the exploitation of self regulatory model by unethical traders.
