Effective management bodies are the bedrock of well-run banks, and well-run banks are the bedrock of a stable banking system, writes Supervisory Board Vice-Chair Frank Elderson. That means safer banks, which is our mission as European banking supervisor https://www.bankingsupervision.europa.eu/press/blog/2023/html/ssm.blog230720~cf8bc7c8d7.en.html https://t.co/C7yVWLAgW3
How does the recent short-lived turmoil in the banking sector differ from the 2008 financial crisis? Better risk management.

By leveraging our regional strength and further deepening our economic and political ties, I have no doubt that Europe and its central, eastern and south-eastern countries can flourish together.

Globalisation is supposedly on the retreat. There is a common perception that firms are diversifying supply chains and moving production closer to home. So, are we heading towards deglobalisation? #TheECBblog finds that the data tell a different story https://www.ecb.europa.eu/press/blog/date/2023/html/ecb.blog230712~085871737a.en.html https://t.co/ocx8ltUPqR

We still have work to do to bring inflation back down to our 2% target, President Christine @Lagarde tells @laprovence.
A simultaneous rise in wages and firms’ profit margins would fuel inflation risks. If that happens, we would not stand idly by https://www.ecb.europa.eu/press/inter/date/2023/html/ecb.in230707~e4c06dfc7c.en.html https://t.co/SCCr6NQcq0
Inflation is projected to decline further towards our target as the effects of our past rate increases are gradually transmitted across the economy, says Vice-President Luis de Guindos. But our job is not yet done – we need to monitor labour costs closely

Re The proposal brings more small and medium-sized banks under the resolution framework, making European financial markets more resilient to crises. To ensure these banks can be resolved effectively, the framework must be underpinned by sufficient funds

Re Shareholders and creditors will rightly still be first in line to bear losses when a bank fails. The proposal builds on this, while improving access to industry-funded safety nets like national deposit guarantee schemes. This should minimise use of taxpayer-funded solutions
