War in Ukraine is Serious Setback to Europe's Economic Recovery
April 22, 2022--Ukraine and Russia face the sharpest economic contractions, but other countries could also fall into recession this year.
The humanitarian catastrophe in Ukraine is reverberating across Europe. Some 5 million refugees have already fled the fighting in the largest exodus the continent has seen since the Second World War and millions more are internally displaced.
The greatest numbers have flowed across borders with Poland, Romania, Hungary and Moldova. The European Union swiftly embraced those displaced by Russia’s invasion, granting them permits to live and work and to receive social assistance for at least a year.
The war is a serious setback to Europe's strong yet incomplete recovery from the pandemic, which left private consumption and investment well below pre-coronavirus forecasts, even as fiscal and monetary support underpinned an impressive rebound in employment almost to levels last seen before the pandemic. Spiking energy and food prices are now cutting deeply into household consumption, and economic uncertainty is poised to restrain investment.

EU financial regulators warn consumers on the risks of crypto-assets
March 17, 2022--The European Supervisory Authorities (EBA, ESMA and EIOPA-the ESAs) today warn consumers that many crypto-assets are highly risky and speculative. The ESAs set out key steps consumers can take to ensure they make informed decisions.
This warning comes in the context of growing consumer activity and interest in crypto-assets and the aggressive promotion of those assets and related products to the public, including through social media.
In their warning, the ESAs highlight that these assets are not suited for most retail consumers as an investment or as a means of payment or exchange, as consumers:
face the very real possibility of losing all their invested money if they buy these assets;
should be alert to the risks of misleading advertisements, including via social media and influencers; and
should be particularly wary of promised fast or high returns, especially those that look too good to be true.

Digital platforms fuel European ETF growth spurt
April 14, 2022--European fund investors have been the poorer cousins of their US counterparts for years, paying higher fees and finding it harder to access low-cost, passively managed products.
Digital platforms offering exchange traded funds look set to help close this gap, however.
Broad-based, traditional ETFs are widely considered to be good building blocks for retail investors' portfolios, removing much of the opacity and high charges frequently associated with other fund investments.
