Banking union with a sovereign virus

Author

  • Daniel Gros
Abstract
Despite the experience of the ongoing sovereign debt crisis, European banks continue to hold large amounts of bonds from their home governments. This ties the fates of the sovereign and the banks together, leading to the disruptive self-reinforcing feedback loops that brought the euro area to the brink of collapse. This article addresses how banks can be weaned off of their massive investments in their home government’s bonds. Copyright ZBW and Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2013
