Uneasy week awaits stock market amid escalating protests

Shares traded on the BIST gained 3.42 percent at 79,100 points in the afternoon session on Friday.

EU11 Growth Drops in 2012 and Remains Slow in 2013 Amid Weak External Confidence

June 13, 2013--The economic growth of the EU11[1] region fell in 2012 and will remain slow in 2013 due to the continued recession in the Euro area and subsiding domestic demand, says the World Bank's latest EU11 Regular Economic Report.

“The recession in the Euro area and weak domestic demand dampened EU11 economic performance in 2012. Overall, the EU11 year-on-year growth rate dropped from 3.1 percent in 2011 to 0.8 percent in 2012,” said Gallina Vincelette, Senior Economist in the World Bank’s Europe and Central Asia region and lead author of the report. “However, the EU11 region is still growing faster than the EU15[2], whose economic activity contracted 0.4 percent last year.”

Stop talking and act on financial services reform, MEPs tell member states

June 12, 2013--MEPs on Wednesday took aim at member states and, to a lesser degree, the Commission, for holding up financial services reforms.

A number of MEPs said EU countries were unable to translate their words into deeds and many stressed that the lack of progress was undermining confidence in the EU.

A resolution clearly identifying the legislation which is blocked in Council or delayed by the Commission will be voted on Thursday.

Opening the debate, Sharon Bowles (ALDE, UK), chair of the economic and monetary affairs committee, accused the Council of "eating up all the time" available until the European elections by always trying to reach consensus among member states..
