European Finance Ministers Deadlock on Plan to Oversee Banks
Keywords:
France and Germany remained far apart on approach to banking regulation in Dec. 2012. Germany does not support regulatory powers of the ECB over Germany's small and midsized savings banks which lend to small businesses and consumers. France supports regulation of all 6000 banks in the eurozone by the ECB. Germany also raises concerns about how the regulatory powers of the ECB can affect its powers in setting interest rates. Germany does not support the British position for regulatory powers over London based banks to remain in Britain. Coming up with a new banking supervisor for European banks with regulatory powers of supervision is needed for Spain to get access to additional EU financing. This is also part of the new financial architecture for the eurozone, including deposit guarantees, which needs to be set up.
France and Italy's push for a new Eurozone Architecture
05/23/2012
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.

Raising Capital: A Love Story?
Wall Street Journal 02/14/2012
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.
