Most financial crises have plenty in common: they tend to start in the banking sector and involve excessive borrowing, together with an asset bubble. The __26__ crisis of 2008 was no different, with the asset bubble focused on US real estate. But my research suggests this crisis had another __27__ cause—that some people in the banking sector were playing or "gaming" the system for their own financial gain.
The game being played had several important features. The first was the deliberate complexity of the financial products at its core. Then there are the __28__ biases that permeate decision-making at all levels of the banking industry. Banking often attracts people with certain personality __29__, including those who are overconfident and take excessive risks.
Such people tend to like complexity for its own sake, but they often do not fully understand the __30__ of that complexity for the stability of the financial system as a whole. Often they do not care—they are primarily interested in gaming the system to __31__ their bonuses.
