Christian Noyer, the Governor of the Bank of France, says that the supervisory infrastructure and deposit guarantee structure for the eurozone has not kept up with the creation of a single currrency, leaving an obvious gap that has to be fixed. Of particular importance is the link between sovereign and banking risks that is behind dangers in today's eurozone crisis, especially in Spain, which he says should be broken. The creation of a single euroarea supervisory authority is a prerequisite for a deposit guarantee fund that will separate and delink bank and sovereign risks. The other step is to create a banking resolution scheme similiar to what the U.S. has setup, with the FDIC having a resolution plan to come in and unwind a failing bank, include large banks with systemic risk.

France and Italy's push is for improved financing of growth projects, coordination of monetary policy with budgets and fiscal situation of eurozone states, and mapping out a pathway that leads to joint issuance of eurobonds. French officials in the Hollande administration say the lack of this architecture is the cause of many of today's problems. Prime minister Monti of Italy played a key role in pushing for the changes at meetings in Rome and Brussels in June 21-27, 2012.
