EC aims for near-real-time consolidated tape

October 7, 2021--Exchanges say the plan is too ambitious and would trigger a latency arms race
The European Commission wants to create a consolidated tape that will deliver trade-data to investors in seconds rather than minutes-an ambitious goal that puts it at odds with exchanges, which have called for a 15-minute delay in reporting transactions.

John Berrigan, the EC's directorate-general for financial stability, financial services and capital markets union (DG Fisma), said that while the aggregated feed of prices and volumes did not have to operate at lightning speeds, reporting

Account of the monetary policy meeting of the Governing Council of the European Central Bank

October 7, 2021--Held in Frankfurt am Main on Wednesday and Thursday, 8-9 September 2021
1. Review of financial, economic and monetary developments and policy options Financial market developments
Ms Schnabel reviewed the financial market developments since the Governing Council's previous monetary policy meeting on 21-22 July 2021.

The pronounced decline in ten-year US Treasury yields and euro area GDP-weighted sovereign yields observed just before the previous Governing Council meeting had proven persistent despite the ongoing recovery from the pandemic crisis.

More recently, yields had been trending somewhat higher but, overall, they had not risen back to the levels seen during the last recovery in 2017-18, or even to the levels seen earlier in 2021. Very low interest rates also continued to prevail across the currency union. Sovereign bond spreads over German Bunds had remained resilient at levels below or close to post-2008 lows.

Strong Rebound in 2021 Boosts Economies in Emerging Europe and Central Asia

October 5, 2021--October 5, 2021--A competitive business environment is key to resilient, sustainable long-term growth
A surprisingly strong rebound in the first half of this year boosted economic activity in emerging and developing countries in the Europe and Central Asia region, with the regional economy now projected to expand by a better-than-expected 5.5 percent in 2021, says the latest edition of the World Bank's Economic Update for the region, released today.

The rebound was largely driven by a strong recovery in exports during the first half of this year, as activity in the Euro area bounced back and commodity prices rose sharply, as well as strengthening domestic demand due to vaccinations and support packages. The boost to exports, however, may be fading due to the ongoing global and regional spread of more contagious COVID-19 variants, which has also dampened the recovery in regional domestic demand.

ECB-Euro area quarterly balance of payments and international investment position: second quarter of 2021

October 4, 2021--Current account surplus at €337 billion (2.9% of euro area GDP) in four quarters to second quarter of 2021, up from €200 billion (1.7% of GDP) a year earlier
Geographic counterparts: largest bilateral current account surpluses vis-à-vis United Kingdom (€176 billion) and United States (€74 billion), largest deficit vis-à-vis China (€66 billion)

International investment position showed net liabilities of €576 billion (4.9% of euro area GDP) at end of second quarter of 2021

Current account

The current account surplus of the euro area increased to €337 billion (2.9% of euro area GDP) in the four quarters to the second quarter of 2021, up from €200 billion (1.7% of GDP) a year earlier (see Table 1). This increase reflected a shift in the services balance from a deficit of €23 billion to a surplus of €79 billion and a larger surplus for goods (from €305 billion to €385 billion). These developments were partly offset by a decrease in the surplus for primary income (from €71 billion to €42 billion) and a larger deficit for secondary income (from €153 billion to €169 billion).
