There is a frequent miscomprehension between continental and anglo-saxon speakers in this area. The continental banks think nothing of being very highly leveraged but insist on regulating the LTV of their borrowers. Conversely, Anglo-saxon financiers seem to ignore LTV as a component of the system, while fretting about leveraging ratios of their banks. We need to recognise this cultural distinction to inform our discussions in future.

About the Speaker:
Axel A. Weber is President of the Deutsche Bundesbank and is regarded as the leading candidate to succeed Jean-Claude Trichet as President of the European Central Bank (ECB) next year. A Member of the Governing Council of the ECB, he is also a Governor of the IMF, a Director of the Bank for International Settlements, and a Member of the Steering Committee of the Financial Stability Board.  

About the Event:
In responding to the financial crisis, the EU has proposed a series of new regulations and new supervisory arrangements. It is estimated that in the next five years, more than fifty major EU initiatives affecting financial services and the broader capital markets will be introduced. Axel A. Weber presented his views on this process of reform, and joined in a discussion on how best to resolve the EU’s current economic and financial difficulties.
