The document discusses several challenges facing the European banking industry, including low profitability, high levels of non-performing loans, overcapacity, and prospects for further bank consolidation. It notes that while bank profitability modestly improved in 2015, supported by resilient net interest income, prospects for future profitability remain uncertain given the low interest rate environment and regulatory changes. The document also examines issues like increasing competition from financial technology firms and the growth of shadow banking.

This paper aims to study the joint effects of the 2004 EU Enlargement and Russia’s entry into the WTO, and the effects of an eventual Russia-Enlarged EU Free Trade Agreement (FTA). The paper is organized as follows: in Section I, it starts with the brief description of the model used. The effects of the 2004 EU Enlargement are estimated on Section II. In Section III, the effects of Russia’s WTO Accession are simulated up on the benchmark of an Enlarged EU. Section IV simulates different Russia-EU FTAs, again upon the benchmark of an Enlarged EU. The work ends with a conclusion.

Brexit or Bremain ? Evidence from bubble analysisMarco Bianchetti
We applied the Johansen-Ledoit-Sornette (JLS) model to detect possible bubbles and crashes related to the Brexit/Bremain referendum scheduled for 23rd June 2016. Our implementation includes an enhanced model calibration using Genetic Algorithms. We selected a few historical financial series sensitive to the Brexit/Bremain scenario, representative of mutiple asset classes.
We found that equity and currency asset classes show no bubble signals, while rates, credit and real estate show super-exponential behaviour and instabilities typical of bubble regime. Out study suggests that, under the JLS model, equity and currency markets do not expect crashes or bursts following the referendum results, thus supporting a Bremain scenario. Instead, rates and credit markets consider the referendum a risky event, expecting either a Bremain scenario or a Brexit scenario edulcorated by central banks intervention. In the case of real estate, a crash is expected, but its relationship with the referendum results is questionable.

Author: Fernando Ballabriga
ESADEgeo - February 2014
Southern euro countries are in a situation of vulnerability due to three factors: their high debt levels, their eroded competitiveness and their difficulties to restart growth. Together, these factors generate a vicious circle which is difficult to exit and which can even degenerate into a self-fulfilling economic downward spiral. This policy brief provides a short guiding tour to the euro zone crisis. It looks at the current situation, the full context conditioning the solutions to the situation, how we got here, and the possible way out. The latter section outlines a set of minimum steps required to make the euro sustainable.

Looking at the recent past: the economic crisis in Italy has been deeper than other European countries
The crisis in the real economy has been reflected hard on Italian banks, given their business mix traditionally oriented to lending, unlike other European banks more exposed to finance
The consequence was a sharp increase in loan loss provisions (with obvious negative impact on profitability)
Despite the intensity of the crisis, public interventions in favor of the banking sector in Italy were much lower than in other large European countries
Looking ahead: macro environment has changed and the performance of the Italian economy has been good last year and should continue to be positive in the next years
Italian banks state of health is increasing: (1) 70 billion euro of new private capital injections from 2017 ...
Capitalization increase: CET1 ratio of top 11 Italians banks has increased to 13.3%, close to the EU average; net of weighting methodologies IT banks stand over the EU average
Credit risk has normalized
NPL stock is declining quickly
NPL ratio is expected to speedily return to manageable value: under 10% in 2019 and at 6,1% at the end of 2021
NPL disposals are growing exponentially speeding up the reduction of the NPL ratio
The absence of an effective coordination in the regulation process doesn’t help
Despite this context, Italian banks’ profitability is increasing, close to pre-crisis level based on 1q 2018 annualized figure
Market appreciation of Italian banks progresses are confirmed by the increasing presence of foreign institutional investors in banks’ capital (higher than in the rest of major European banks)...
Banks’ holdings of domestic government bonds in the euro area
The maturity structure of public debt matters: In Italy the average residual life of outstanding government securities is of 7.4 years

Presentation of Prof. Lars Feld - The Economic Situation in EMU - Where do we...Bankenverband
GCEE Business Cycle Update, March 2018: “In the euro area, the level of indebtedness of many member states remains very high. This is particularly true of Italy where the national debt stands at over 130 % of GDP. Should financial markets lose confidence in the sustainability of public debt on account of the political uncertainty resulting from the outcome of the election, given the size of the Italian economy a return of the euro crisis cannot be ruled out. Furthermore, risks to financial stability continue to persist in certain member states due to the fragility of many banks, particularly with regard to the extent of non-performing loans.”
Twenty years of euro history confirms the euro’s stability and position as the second global currency. It also enjoys the support of majority of the euro area population and is seen as a good thing for the European Union. The European Central Bank has been successful in keeping inflation at a low level. However, the European debt and financial crisis in the 2010s created a need for deep institutional reform and this task remains unfinished.

Non-Bank Lending in Germany: How Investors can access Lending to the MiddelstandDr. Nicolaus Loos
Presentation held by Dr. Nicolaus Loos at the Private Debt Investor Conference in Munich, June 23rd 2016:
The German Midmarket has for long been considered "closed shop" for European Private Debt players seeking to undertake Direct Lending transactions. Dr. Loos outlines the attractiveness of Germany in comparison to other EU markets and in particular highlights the Mittelstand as an investment case, offering a highly attractive risk-return profile for investors. Accessing this market needs careful considerations though.
