Finally, we have the first ECB “estimate” of future bank demand for excess reserves, ranging from €600 billion to €2.2 trillion, depending on banks’ HQLA holdings and LCR targets.

Finally, we have the first ECB “estimate” of future bank demand for excess reserves, ranging from €600 billion to €2.2 trillion, depending on banks’ HQLA holdings and LCR targets.
Compared to other countries, excess reserves remain abundant in the euro area, with the spread of repo rates over policy rates currently slightly negative.

However, this increases duration risk in banks' balance sheets. An increase in government bond rates would have a significant impact on banks' LCRs. The role of reserves as HQLA is one of the main reasons why today’s normalisation does not entail a return to the pre-GFC framework.

As reserves have decreased, banks have absorbed the decline in HQLA assets by purchasing government bonds, keeping their LCRs relatively stable.

As for structural monetary policy operations, the ECB will first launch structural refinancing operations, followed later by a structural securities portfolio once legacy bond holdings have wound down sufficiently. Before implementation, MROs and 3m LTROs need to pick up considerably.

While China's exports to the US have decreased, they have strongly increased for ASEAN countries.

Interesting figures from Philip Lane. The constant downward revision to real exports is quite telling.

In 2024, there was a significant decline in gas and coal power generation. The electricity sector in the EU is becoming increasingly decarbonised, and the integration of batteries will hopefully accelerate this positive trend.

But solar (and wind) are replacing fossil fuels. Coal power generation in the EU has been declining for more than a decade, and gas power generation has been decreasing over the last 5 years.

Given Trump’s current attacks on the Fed, we should not fall back on defending the policy regime that is partly responsible for the current state of affairs. It is imperative to push our own progressive project. Worth reading @adamtooze.bsky.social here:

Este articulo parece escrito como si las dos últimas décadas no hubieran existido y pasa por alto la diferencia fundamental entre deuda en moneda propia y moneda extranjera.
Conviene recordar que el gasto público destinado al pago de intereses es bajo desde una perspectiva histórica.

El problema del títol d'"economista" és que un cap de suro amb un títol d'ADE, un màster en neuromarketing (lol) i una experiència laboral basada en prometre retorns del 15% sense risc (lol), se'l pot autoatorgar sense que ningú ho qüestioni.

Y volviendo al principio, seguimos viendo diferencias marcadas en el ciclo. A mí lo que me parece sorprendente del período post-GFC es la disciplina de capital de las constructoras, garantizando que la vivienda sea un activo escaso. Para paliar esto, más que regulación, necesitas inversión pública.

This creates an extremely uneven playing field, where countries facing high WACC—mostly due to their country macroeconomic profile—will have much less competitive renewable electricity prices due to the much higher financing costs.

Great graph from the last @irena-official.bsky.social report, which illustrates the centrality of financing costs in renewable electricity LCOE, especially in Africa. Bringing down financing costs for renewable projects is central to boosting the green transition worldwide.

Huge: renewable energy overtakes coal for the first time in Poland.
"The country now boasts 23 gigawatts of installed solar capacity — more than three times the 2030 target set in 2021 — largely thanks to a solar energy push from the former PiS government."

The ECB present the results of its strategy assessment. Whereas the 2021 strategy review focused on flexibility when responding to shocks, the ECB now argues that a more forceful response is needed. This can have important distributive consequences going forward.

Hi @isabelschnabel.bsky.social, there's a point that puzzles me from your recent speech. Back in 2022, you argued that a flat Philips Curve justified a forceful reaction by the ECB.
Yet in your latest speech, you suggest that a steep Phillips Curve also calls for a forceful reaction.
