Isaac Paige Associates Chairman Says Biggest Risk is Shortage of Political Will

Seattle, WA, March 18, 2009 --(PR.com)-- Isaac Paige Associates Chairman, Peter Matthews, said “the biggest risk to an economic recovery is a shortage of political will,” and he also stressed the need to revive U.S. banking.

“The biggest risk is that, you know, we don’t have the political will,” the Isaac Paige Associates Chairman said in a taped interview. “Recovery is not going to happen until the financial markets and the banks are stabilized and the government’s plan is going to take some patience. It’s going to take some support,” he said.

Matthews reiterated in the interview that, “should the government succeed in calming financial markets, the recession will probably end this year and the economy will expand in 2010.”
