Diplomska naloga opisuje finančno krizo, ki je zajela svet v letu 2007. Zaradi preobsežnega dajanja kreditov, kreditno nesposobnim posojilojemalcem, se je razvila v najhujšo krizo po letu 1929. Začela se je kot hipotekarna kriza v ZDA, se kmalu razširila na finančne sektorje in prizadela gospodarstva po vsem svetu. Ukrepi, za blažitev posledic, ki so jih sprejele države se razlikujejo zaradi političnih, gospodarskih in kulturnih razlik, kljub temu pa so se države zgledovale po ukrepih, ki so se izkazali za uspešne. V Evropski uniji so se kmalu pojavile težnje po skupnem reševanju posledic krize, saj bi članice z usklajenim ukrepanjem hitreje prebrodile recesijo. Države so, v želji obvladovanja razmer, sprejemale ukrepe za gospodarske in finančne sektorje. Poudarek diplomske naloge je na davčnih ukrepih, ki so jih uvedle države članice EU (Slovenija, Nizozemska in Velika Britanija), ter na primerjavi njihove uspešnosti. ; This work describes financial crisis which hit the world in 2007. Because of too much credit inability, it has evolved into worst crisis since the 1929. It started as a mortgage crisis in the U.S., it soon spread to the financial sectors and affected the world economy. There are different measures to mitigate the consequences because of political, economic and cultural differences, however, the countries did measures that have proven to be successful. In European Union soon had a case for a joint resolution of a crisis, because that way Member States would deal with recession faster. In desire to control situation, countries have taken measures for economic and financial sectors.
