    Ages of Financial Instability

    Mario Tonveronachi
    Abstract

    Starting from the mid-nineteenth century, this paper analyzes two periods of financial instability connected with financial globalization. The first culminates with the 1929 crisis, while the second characterizes the more recent experience starting from the 1970s. The period in between is divided into two subperiods. The first goes up to World War II and sees […]

    An Alternative to Sovereign Bond-Backed Securities for the Euro Area

    Mario Tonveronachi
    Abstract

    The European Commission's proposal for the regulation of sovereign bond-backed securities (SBBSs) follows the release of a high-level taskforce report, sponsored by the European Systemic Risk Board, on the feasibility of an SBBS framework. The proposal and the SBBS scheme, Mario Tonveronachi argues, would fail to yield the intended results while undermining financial stability. Tonveronachi articulates […]

    Completing the Single Financial Market and New Fiscal Rules for the Euro Area

    Mario Tonveronachi
    Abstract

    Until market participants across the euro area face a single risk-free yield curve rather than a diverse collection of quasi-risk-free sovereign rates, financial market integration will not be complete. Unfortunately, the institution that would normally provide the requisite benchmark asset—a federal treasury issuing risk-free debt—does not exist in the euro area, and there are daunting […]

    The ECB, the Single Financial Market, and a Revision of the Euro Area Fiscal Rules

    Mario Tonveronachi
    Abstract

In this policy brief, Tonveronachi discusses potential changes to […]

    The ECB and the Single European Financial Market

    Mario Tonveronachi
    Abstract

    The flaws of the Maastrict Treaty are a frequent object of commentary but, as yet, Europe remains unable—or, perhaps more accurately, unwilling—to address these flaws. The European project will remain unfinished and the ability of the European Central Bank to implement effective monetary policies will continue to be hobbled. As Mario Tonveronachi observes in this […]

    Η ΕΚΤ και η ενιαία ευρωπαϊκή χρηματοπιστωτική αγορά

    Mario Tonveronachi
    Abstract

    Οι ατέλειες της Συνθήκης του Maastrict είναι συχνά αντικείμενο σχολιασμού, ωστόσο, όμως, η Ευρώπη παραμένει ανίκανη ή μάλλον απρόθυμη να αντιμετωπίσει αυτές τις αδυναμίες. Το ευρωπαϊκό σχέδιο θα παραμείνει ημιτελές και η ικανότητα της Ευρωπαϊκής Κεντρικής Τράπεζας να εφαρμόζει αποτελεσματικές νομισματικές πολιτικές θα συνεχίσει να αντιμετωπίζει προβλήματα. Όπως παρατηρεί σε αυτό το κείμενο πολιτικής ο […]
