German official: Detailed deal on banks unlikely at EU summit

“Detailed deal” on anything unlikely mate

;)

Expectations of anything meaningful coming out of the two day conflab are extremely looooooooow.

  • Euro leaders must advance on bank oversight
  • Need quick solution on Spain banks
  • EFSF, ESM available to help in euro area
  • Van Rompuy report weighed toward mutual debt
  • Report unclear on how to pool debt
  • Germany rejects recapitalisation of banks with bailout funds if supervisory controls stay at national level
  • Can’t raise summit expectations too high
  • EIB to get 10 bln euros new capital, Germany’s share 1.6 bln
  • On the Italy question, Germany is sceptical about developing yet another instrument to solve problems
  • It’s up to states with problems to decide whether, when and how to use the available instruments
  • We would warn against ‘exaggerated panic-mongering’ over the very high interest rates currently for Spain and Italy
  • EU summit cannot decide anything new on Greece before the Troika report out, the country must stick to its obligations

Best in 2026
