6:34Now PlayingAlan Greenspan, the former chairman of the Federal Reserve, died Monday of complications from Parkinson’s disease at the age of 100.
Greenspan was widely considered the most powerful Fed chair in modern times, serving for nearly two decades and largely presiding over a period of long prosperity. He was frequently credited for helping to manage inflation and foster growth, but his strong beliefs in the free market and less regulation came under sharp criticism during the financial crisis that led to the Great Recession.
Paul Solman looks back at Greenspan’s legacy.
