How Mario Draghi, ECB president, sees the problems in the eurozone and policy direction in 2012-2015
01/11/2010
A wide ranging interview with Mario Draghi by Wall Street Journal reporters Blackstone, Karnitschnig and Thomson, which gives insights on how Draghi sees solutions to the crisis in the eurozone and future policy. Draghi favors good fiscal consolidation which combines freeing up labor markets and structural changes for Italy, Spain and other southern countries, with spending reductions, and capital investment in the future as opposed to tax increases for current spending and lack of capital investment for future growth. He points out that with excessive debt to GDP ratios there is no alternative to this right kind of fiscal consolidation. The fiscal consolidation gives the structural changes time to be put in place..

Short term actions to save the euro taken at the Brussels negotiations on June 28, 2012
01/11/2012
Short term steps Germany agreed to when pushed hard by Italy, Spain and France, include the critical actions to let the European rescue funds to directly buy Italian and Spanish bonds on private markets to drive down bond yields, and provide direct aid to Italian and Spanish banks. The two steps were vital to restore market confidence and necessary if the European project was to be saved. The marathon negotiation stetched for 14 hours with brinksmanship, and were described by prime minister Monti of Italy as "hard and tense" but worth it.

Mario Monti's Labor Minister Elsa Fornero and changes to Italy's labor laws
06/24/2011
Elsa Fornero says Italy is not a place where people follow the rules, and there is a strong tendency to rig the system to tweak it in different places to benefit different groups. The last 10 goverments have failed to tackle the Workers Law put in place after the Second World War, which is out of place in today's economy. Which is why the changes she has made are so significant for Italy to regain its competitiveness and its potential, and modernize its economy. This is also one of the major positive outcomes of the current eurozone crisis. Spain has launched a similiar effort. It involves a culture change which would increase productivity and investment. It also shows that while the Merkel Christian Democrats may need to adjust the austeity programs to promote growth, some of the structural changes pushed in Europe including the formation of the Monti government are finally on the right track.

Spain's prime minister Mariano Rajoy's handling of the economic and banking crisis in Spain
09/28/2011
Rajoy's history cautiously embracing politics as Spain emerged from the Franco era, his father's advice to avoid politics after the searing experience of his grandfather in Galicia, the early years in Pontevedra, Galicia, and regional pride in Galicia, are described in Rajoy's book "En Confianza." Regional pride and the European experiment appear to be intertwined, just as Germany would like to see its political entity merged with a European entity, Spain would like to see its political entity merged with the European entity, because of a searing interwar period. Rajoy would genuinely like to see the European experiment go forward as he made the decision to accept EU aid.

The views of Axel Weber, former head of the Bundesbank, on the ECB's role and the need to address the underlying problems in Greece
04/19/2010
Axel Weber says the European Central Bank should stick to its mandate of setting monetary policy and not get too involved in the crisis in Greece. He says Greece's problems are structural and may take a long time to resolve, as much as 30 years. The European leaders have to decide on solving the underlying problems so that they cut the losses and restart, by offering debt guarantees and using partial creditor haircuts. Simply giving additional loans -which can never be repaid considering the debt of 350 billion euros ($496 billion)- or addding short term liquidity for a 3-5 year solution as European leaders have done so far, won't work.

The purchases of Italian and Spanish bonds by the European Central Bank in addition to its holdings of 75 billion euros of Portuguese, Greek and Irish bonds creates additional balance sheet risk for the ECB. Losses in the value of collateral could wipe out the 10 billion euro capital base of the ECB. The pressing need to give resources and new powers to the European Financial Stability Facility so that this agency could do the bond buying in the place of the ECB.

The ECB's Long Term Financing Operation Dec. 2011- March 2012
11/10/2011
The ECB's newly created Long Term Financing Operation enables European banks to meet their financing needs by borrowing from the European Central Bank at low rates of 1% for three years. Mid size banks in Spain buy government bonds of Spain and use the bonds as collateral at the ECB to access this lowcost funding. This has helped bring down rates at a recent auction of Spain's bonds from 5.1% to 1.7%. Italian banks also participated in the same way. 523 European banks borrowed 489 billion euros on Dec. 21, 2011, under this newly created financing operation of the ECB. This provides European banks financing as they are shutoff from normal financing by selling unsecured bonds to private and institutional lenders. This helps banks in the eurozone meet financial needs in 2012 without reducing lending to businesses and consumers.

Merkel, Schroeder, Schauble and other leaders agree on the need for the European Union. The question is how to bring fiscal discipline to the EU, even if this means redesigning the structure of the EU. The vision of a united Europe persists.

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.

A 27% unemployment rate and GDP declline at annual rate of 3.1% by June 2012 in Castilla-La Mancha create difficult conditions. Cospedal is the senior leader in the Partido Popular after prime minister Mariano Rajoy. She says she wants growth and employment, but her first priority is to have "cleaned up accounts" so that Spain's borrowing costs can be brought down. Lack of credible finances in the regions are a major problem in Spain recognized by all sides, but the drive to reestablish credibility comes at a time of rising unemployment.

He expresses the view of the Bundesbank about opposition to sovereign bond purchases by the European Central Bank to ease high bond yields for Spain and Italy. This is considered as overstepping the ECB's manadate for price stability. Weidmann is the German member of the ECB's Governing Council.

Germany would assume a large share of the losses if the eurozone would breakup, much larger than the 28% which is its share of the ECB's capital.

Merkel Backs Bond-Buying Program

Germany's chancellor Merkel navigates a fine path in Sept. 2012 between Bundesbank opposition to sovereign bonds and ECB president Draghi's efforts to stabilize the euro
09/18/2012
Merkel supports ECB president Draghi's efforts to stabilize the euro in September 2012, but navigates around Bundesbank president Weidmann's opposition to sovereign bond purchases by the ECB by saying that proper eurozone banking supervision arrangements have to be established. Merkel and finance minister Schauble insist that this will require more time beyond the Jan 1, 2013 date in the EU proposal, to be done properly.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
