We have achieved important results on the way to a banking union, notably on supervision.

That is not the outcome favored by the European Commission, which has only just set up the European Banking Authority.

First, the identity of the single European banking supervisor remains undecided, and the ECB has seen an opportunity for a power grab.

That is why the completion of the ECB s comprehensive assessment of banks balance sheets and the start of Europe wide banking supervision will help revitalize sluggish lending in the euro area.

D. Money is the key to gaining power

Groupthink can be particularly dangerous if the central bank is also the banking supervisor, as the 2008 global financial crisis demonstrated.

According to the Commission s model, the European Banking Authority will remain in place, and is charged with producing a single rulebook for all 27 EU member states.

The problems created by this approach will be compounded by the unavoidable conflicts of interest with monetary policy implied by the ECB s assumption of its new financial stability and banking supervision roles.

The director of the Banking Institute of the Higher School of Economics Vasiliy Solodkov is now already seeing signs of an imminent banking crisis.

(b) Strengthening of the Office of Internal Oversight Services

In parallel, the European Banking Authority will continue to perform its existing tasks, namely developing the single rulebook for the entire single market and ensuring convergent supervisory practice throughout the EU.

The most remarkable feature of the policy deliberations on prudential banking rules so far has been their delegation to the Basel Committee of Banking Supervisors and the banks themselves, both of which have a vested interest in preserving the existing system.

These fools broke the law that forbade breaking the law.

We can only hope that the bankers are eventually rescued from the burning eurotower by Super Sarkozy and Wonder Frau Merkel and that the Basel Committee of Banking Supervisors ensures that there will be no sequel.

The aftermath of the banking crisis requires thinking about not only the most appropriate form of banking legislation, but also the appropriate size of the state.

There is no political risk involved the Swiss have no powerful lobby in the United States or the EU that they can mobilize as the birthplace of private banking, Switzerland has enormous symbolic value as the world leader in private banking, it triggers jealousies.
