Abstract

In front of the work let's look at the concept of investments in connection with an activity which it is intended for use a sum of money in order to obtain future profits. In a broad sense, the investment represents a part of sacrifice present consumption for future consumption, as possible and uncertain. For years experts in economics and finance declare that world financial system is threatened by potentially catastrophic events. In an interview for the BBC in 2003, Warren Buffet, called synthetics as "financial weapons of mass destruction", while other specialists blame development "trade type- casino". As the current crisis has been going on, has become more and more clear that we are being afflicted with events will have a strong impact in the long term. At the same time, because of the interconnected nature of the world markets, the effects are felt by all over the world.
