Dismantling universal banks? Bad idea says Deutsche Bank Research
- Posted by Anthony Harrington, March 1, 2013
- 0 Comments
These days with re-regulation of the banking system being enthusiastically supported by governments across developed markets, it is hard to find anyone outside the banking community to raise a voice against more and tighter regulation. However, this hasn't stopped the research arm of Deutsche Bank from roundly condemning the idea of splitting off so called "casino banking" from traditional deposit taking banking operations.

Restoring confidence in the euro area
- Posted by Anthony Harrington, September 4, 2012
- 0 Comments
The title of this blog echoes the title of a speech given on 1 June by Benoît Coeuré, a member of the Executive Board of the European Central Bank. The first thing that comes to mind when one sees a title like this is a sense that this truly would seem to be mission impossible at the current time. The only magic wand that anyone could wave over the current mess would be a sudden pledge from the ECB to buy as much sovereign debt as was needed to calm markets. This wouldn't cure anything, but it would "restore confidence", at least for a while. If it was allied to a sudden urge by all members of the eurozone to meld together into a fiscal union, then the magic trick would be complete. However this latter point is right up there with "pigs might fly".

Deconstructing bankers' complaints
- Posted by Anthony Harrington, August 23, 2012
- 0 Comments
With Standard Chartered, one of the few major banking names to emerge with its reputation unscathed from the 2008 crash and the LIBOR debacle, now looking as besmirched as the rest, this is not a good moment for bankers to be complaining about "over-regulation." However, there is a widespread view among bankers that the biggest risks facing the sector going forward are the unintended consequences that are likely to flow from regulatory initiatives like Basel III and political initiatives to curb pay and bonus excesses. No surprises there, of course: after the party comes the clean up, and who enjoys that?
