Boosting the effectiveness of Europe’s bailout fund will require further talks with investors as German lawmakers prepare to vote on its new powers in two days, a European Union document showed.
While the European Financial Stability Facility can be bolstered under two models that may be combined and implemented “quickly,” the extent to which the fund is leveraged can only be ascertained after discussions with investors and rating companies, the document provided to German lawmakers said.
The draft underscores the gaps remaining in European Union efforts to address the debt crisis as Chancellor Angela Merkel and fellow leaders prepare to return to Brussels for a second summit in four days on Oct. 26. Leaders are still jousting with banks over the size of losses they take on Greek bonds while deliberating over leveraging the fund after ruling out tapping the European Central Bank’s balance sheet.“A lot of people will wait to see the detail” of how the
EFSF capacity is increased, Kit Juckes , head of foreign-exchange research at Societe Generale SA in London, said in an interview on Bloomberg Television’s “Surveillance Midday” with Tom Keene.“It’s hard to see that the ECB isn’t going to have to print some of this.”German budget lawmakers are due to convene in Berlin tomorrow to begin scrutiny of the two leveraging models. The first would increase the EFSF’s capacity by insuring a fraction of countries’ funding requirements, and the second combines capital from European and non-European public and private investors, the draft said. The two are not “mutually exclusive,”Steffen Seibert, Merkel’s spokesman, told reporters.
