The Big Short is easily my favorite finance-related movie of all time and I had to watch it multiple times to understand this concept 😂. Thanks for clearing it up Afzal!
The Big Short is your favorite finance movie of all time but it’s my favorite movie of all time (or at least one of them). I also had to watch it 10+ times 😂
I haven't watched The Big Short yet ..does it go into depth about these various financial products, or is it really just basic stuff for the general layman audience?
After years of hearing the 2008 crisis with more or less accurate descriptions, you’ve made it very clear at the end of the video. Man thank you so much?¿
Im preparing for a law firm interview and was so confused by the term, so I spent ages finding the answer- little did I know I could’ve cleared it up in 2 mins by watching your video! You’ve just earned yourself a subscriber✨
Welcome back to another episode of Two Minute Tuesday! Today I'm telling you everything you need to know about the infamous Credit Default Swap (CDS) which was heavily used and played a major role in the global financial crisis of 2007/2008. Through this video I hope to provide a high level understanding and insight into credit default swaps and their role in the world of finance and banking. Whether you're a student, graduate, professional or anyone else, I hope these videos are informative and easy to understand. Do consider subscribing to the channel if you haven't already, leave a like and a comment and let me know what which finance term, idea or concept you'd like me to explain in plain English in my next Two Minute Tuesday. Thanks!
God bless you my man, you stuck to your word and explained it simply. In 2 minutes you did what ~20 other RUclips channels (that I visited) couldn't do.
Afzal, your channel is so impressive. I have no doubt you will be incredibly successful. I'm a law student from Canada, and your videos are incredibly wide-ranging and informative. Mashaallah brother keep up the great work!
As always Afzal - great short sweet explanation! As I work in investment banking myself I can say that you are supporting the younger generation really well so when they apply for grad jobs they know what they are talking about during the interviews! I wish I had the chance to watch these kind of videos when I was applying to grad jobs and I had to learn all these stuff myself. Well done once again! Hope people are valuing your videos.
reading the big short by michael lewis and I know the book explained it, but I couldnt comprehend. Plus it kept referencing CDS' so this makes it easier going forward.
Informative video. Please make more such video. Your explanation to the technical is simple and relatable. it's treat to learn about advance finance terms here.
Wow, your explanation was clear and concise, it’s appreciated. So just to ensure my understanding: Lehman Brothers was “B”, unable to cover “A” for “C” defaulting, yes?
Great info. one thing - the Fed did not have to step in to bail out Lehman Bros. The should have done nothing and let it all collapse. In bailing out Lehman Bros., they socialized the losses and rewarded the people who made risky bets. That set the tone for what just happened with the BOE this week. Pure criminal
Hey Mr Hussein, Can you please make a video explaining Options in detail please. Like you know, in the money, out of the money, and other unique types of options.
The video was convenient to understand this concept. If you could please tell that what happens to the lender when the insurance company fails to provide the credit swap it was supposed to give to the lender?
This is a solid explanation! Reading about the terms in School Books always confuses me because of the language - but you do a great job of clarifying the concept of the financial mechanics. Maybe animations to the two minute Tuesdays is could help sell the point to Visual learners?
Why doesn't B give loans directly to C if they are already assuming the risk? Is A seen as more reputable or do they serve a customer acquisition role?
Hey, nice series of short videos. I enjoy it a lot. Sometimes it could be helpful to show graphically the things you are explaining. Especially when there are a lot of parties that interconnect like in this case. Either way, thanks :)
Great video and superb explanation! I also enjoy the fact that your making your videos more dynamic (as dynamic as it can get when it comes to finance😅). It personally really helps me to stay engaged with your videos, in comparison to some of your older vids

After years, I can finally say that I’ve understood the concept..
The Big Short is easily my favorite finance-related movie of all time and I had to watch it multiple times to understand this concept 😂. Thanks for clearing it up Afzal!
The Big Short is your favorite finance movie of all time but it’s my favorite movie of all time (or at least one of them). I also had to watch it 10+ times 😂
Are there any other finance movies you would recommend??
I haven't watched The Big Short yet ..does it go into depth about these various financial products, or is it really just basic stuff for the general layman audience?
