Why Iceland?
How one of the World's Smallest Countries Became the Meltdown's Biggest Casualty. Asgeir Jonsson, head of research and chief economist for Iceland's biggest bank explains the whole story of how Iceland grew into a banking empire and then collapsed, including the theory that Iceland's fall was the result of a speculative attack by hedge funds on the nation's banking system. He examines the roles played by the United States and United Kingdom, and predicts how the collapse will, in turn, affect them.
