BNP Paribas: Asset managers are the good guys
July 28, 2013--Christian Dargnat, the newly appointed president of the European fund association, Efama, has the look of a man with the weight of the world on his shoulders.
Despite our interview taking place in sunny Monaco – not more than a short walk from Monte Carlo bay – the 47-year-old, who also doubles as chief executive of BNP Paribas Asset Management, cuts a rather forlorn-looking figure.

However, net revenue was down slightly on the prior-year quarter (Q2/2012: €506.7 million) in light of the ongoing difficult capital market environment.

IMF-Euro Area Policies: Selected Issues Paper
July 25, 2013--FRAGMENTATION, THE MONETARY TRANSMISSION
MECHANISM, AND MONETARY POLICY IN THE EURO AREA1
The European Central Bank (ECB) has taken a range of actions to address bank funding problems, eliminate excessive risk in sovereign markets, and safeguard monetary transmission. As a result, the
situation across the euro area financial system has improved since the summer of 2012.
But the degree of fragmentation remains high, with retail interest rates in stressed markets far above those
in the core. This has impeded the flow of credit and undermined the transmission of monetary
policy. Analysis presented here indicates that the credit channel has been broken during the crisis,
particularly in stressed markets, and that small and medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs) in hard-hit economies appear to be most affected. Given these stresses, the ECB can undertake additional targeted policy measures, including through various forms of term funding, looser collateral policies, and direct asset purchases.
