In this tightening market, IFIs as well as conventional financial institutions has highly suffered from the crisis. Frozen liquidity market, the fall in the real estate market where IFIs investments are highly concentrated were the main reasons behind the deterioration of assets value, the increase in the provisions and thus poor earnings and even losses.
