These crises have been common within most countries throughout modern history into Europe and the USA and have had a deep impact onto the growth of financial systems. Furthermore, many emerging countries have had various banking problems in current years: about three-quarters of the member countries of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) suffered several form of financial crises in between from 1980 and 1996 in Lindgren, Garcia, Saal, 1996.
