Recap of 2012’s top financial phrases

Over the last two weeks, Advisor.ca has offered insight on the top financial phrases of 2012.

To mark the end of the year (and hopefully not the end of the world), we compiled links and comments relating to the three most newsworthy trends of the past twelve months.

The first two were:

Too big to bail?

News about the Eurozone’s woes and bailout packages dominated headlines all year, and there’s no clear resolution in sight as yet.

Emerging markets re-emerge

Emerging markets investors may have taken it on the chin last year, but there’s evidence the tide is turning. Countries such as the Philippines, Mexico and India were all recognized as up-and-comers.

IPo yo-yo

This is the top phrase of year, as deemed by Advisor.ca staff. We found some of 2012’s biggest stories revolved around IPOs, with the epic fiasco that was Facebook’s IPO taking center stage.
