• Future ESM bank recapitalisation must be requested by states
  • Unrealistic to have supervision of 6,000 banks soon
  • European banking supervision should be focused on systemically-relevant banks
  • Little downside risk to German economic growth forecasts of +0.7% in 2012, +1.6% in 2013
  • Germany determined to cut their borrowing
  • Germany will exceed debt brake requirements by far

That’s enough of all that……
