  • The Italian Candidate: the Appointment of Mario Draghi to the Presidency of the ECB
    6 The ITalIan CandIdaTe: The appoInTmenT of marIo draghI To The presIdenCy of The eCB Kenneth Dyson and Lucia Quaglia After prolonged negotiations, on 24 June 2011, the governor of the Bank of Italy, Mario Draghi, was appointed president of the European Central Bank (ECB) as successor to Jean-Claude Trichet. His mandate runs from 1 November 2011 to 31 October 2019. Draghi’s appointment was consistent with a long-standing practice of Italian politicians and officials seeking to engage with the process of European integration by ensuring that they were “sitting at the European top table.” In the context of the euro area, sitting at the top table for Italy was initially about gaining euro entry as a founding member state in 1999 and, subsequently, about having strong Italian representation in the gov- erning structures of the euro area, particularly the ECB.1 Once the sovereign debt crisis became contagious in 2010–2011, it meant ensur- ing that financial markets drew a clear distinction between Italy and periphery member states such as Greece and Portugal that suffered from sovereign debt distress. However, retaining a seat at the European high table did not prove easy. First, Italy qualified late for euro entry, with little safety margin and the help of some last-minute and somewhat controversial fiscal measures and in the face of much German skepticism. Second, the cir- cumstances surrounding the resignation in 2005 of the Bank of Italy’s governor, Antonio Fazio, damaged Italy’s reputation. Third, by the Italian Politics: From Berlusconi to Monti 27 (2012): 155–171 © Berghahn Books doi:10.3167/ip.2012.270109 156 Kenneth Dyson and Lucia Quaglia summer of 2011, Silvio Berlusconi’s government was battling against a loss of financial market credibility.

  • Mario Draghi: Welcome Remarks
    Mario Draghi: Welcome remarks - 8th ECB conference on central, eastern and south-eastern European countries Welcome remarks by Mr Mario Draghi, President of the European Central Bank, at the 8th ECB conference on central, eastern and south-eastern European countries, Frankfurt am Main, 12 June 2019. * * * Dear guests and colleagues, It is a great pleasure to welcome you to the eighth ECB conference on central, eastern and south-eastern European (CESEE) countries. There are many differences between the 18 economies in the CESEE region1, but one thing they have in common is that they have all experienced real economic convergence towards the EU average since the 1990s. Over the last two decades, in particular, real GDP per capita growth has averaged 3.8% in the region, compared with 1.4% in the European Union (EU) as a whole. But there has been a clear difference in the pace of convergence.2 Countries that have joined the EU, and which are hereafter referred to as the central and eastern European (CEE) economies,3 reached GDP per capita levels of 70% of the EU average. Within this group, the countries that have joined the euro area have grown even faster, reaching almost 80% of the EU average. In contrast, catching up has been markedly slower in the economies outside the EU, with income levels below 40%4 of the EU28 average.5 EU and euro area membership acted as a catalyst for convergence, creating the institutional and economic conditions for CEE economies to adopt highly effective growth strategies. Their faster convergence shows that, with high-quality institutions in place, the EU Single Market can be a powerful engine of growth, allowing not only the poorer countries to catch up, but also the richer countries to benefit from a larger market and opportunities to increase production efficiency.6 However, in order to maintain convergence and reap lasting benefits from the Single Market and euro area membership, efforts to ensure institutional quality and good governance have become all the more important given the headwinds facing CEE economies.

  • Mario Draghi: Interview with Europe 1
    Mario Draghi: Interview with Europe 1 Interview with Mr Mario Draghi, President of the European Central Bank, with Europe 1, conducted by Mr Jean-Pierre Elkabbach on 23 September 2014, aired on 24 September 2014. * * * Europe 1: You have already acted decisively in June and September. If unemployment continues to grow, can the ECB continue to stimulate the economy? Monetary policy will stay accommodative for a long time and I can say that the Governing Council is unanimous in its commitment to use the available instruments within its mandate to bring inflation back to close but below 2%. Interest rates will stay at the present level for an extended period of time because they can’t go much lower than that. In Europe, is there a risk today of deflation or even of recession? For the euro area as a whole we don’t see risk of deflation. We see risk of too low inflation for too long a time and for the euro area as a whole, as I’ve said many times our recovery is modest, weak, uneven, and fragile, but it’s not recession. Do you have a lot of liquidity at the ECB? Yes, we’ve shown that we have a lot of liquidity in the ECB. And could you show it again? And we’re certainly, as I said before, we’re certainly ready to use all the instruments within our mandate to make sure that… To obtain more of growth by 2017, 2018: what needs to be done? One talks about developing infrastructure and about investing.

  • How Macron Won It All the French President As Master Kingmaker
    How Macron Won It All The French president as master kingmaker. he French did it again. By recalling Christine Lagarde, who has served as managing director of the International Monetary Fund since 2011, from Washington and throwing her into the race to succeed Mario Draghi as By Klaus C. Engelen head of the European Central Bank, French President Emanuel Macron effectively won the real power game in the competition for the top European positions after the May elections for the European Parliament. But since Macron helped nominate, in a big surprise, Ursula von der Leyen, Tthe Brussels-born francophone long-time member of German Chancellor Angela Merkel’s government, to lead the new EU Commission, the disappoint- ment in Germany of not seeing Bundesbank President Jens Weidmann chosen as Draghi’s successor may have been somewhat mitigated. HOW MACRON GOT THE POLE POSITION When the race for the new EU chief executive began, the French presi- dent started questioning the system of Spitzenkandidaten (lead candidates). Macron referred to the Lisbon Treaty, which left the Council in the lead role to select and propose a candidate whom the European Parliament then would have to confirm with an absolute majority. The Council consists of the heads of state or governments of the member countries, together with its president and the president of the Commission. In Macron’s view, the 2014 European election, when the center-right European People’s Party got Jean-Claude Juncker elected Commission president with the help of the Progressive Alliance for Socialist and Democrats, was THE MAGAZINE OF INTERNATIONAL ECONOMIC POLICY an aberration to be corrected.

  • France: Negative Rates Shouldn't Mean You Ease up on Debt
    21 June 2019 France: Negative rates shouldn’t mean you ease Opinion up on debt reduction French 10-year benchmark yields briefly went into negative territory after the ECB President, Mario Draghi's Sintra speech this week (and some tweets by President Trump). But being paid to take on more debt should not encourage reckless spending ECB President, Mario Draghi talks with the French President, Emmanuel Macron in 2018 Something of an historic event happened in France following Mario Draghi's speech in Sintra on 18 June: the benchmark rate on 10-year government bonds fell below 0%, following German bonds into negative territory. The speech went a little further than Mr Draghi’s comments in Frankfurt (after the June monetary policy meeting) where he only mentioned, in response to a question, the fact that new easing measures had been discussed. By saying in Sintra that "in the absence of improvement, such that the sustained return of inflation to our aim is threatened, additional stimulus will be required", he boosted the likelihood of a further deposit rate cut (currently at -0.40%) starting in July. French 10-year yields did not stay negative for long, merely minutes, but shorter maturities (up to 6 years) were already negative. The 0% threshold for 10-year government bonds is not just symbolic. Neither are the signs given by the ECB that rates will stay low for longer. These developments should indeed incentivise the French Government to continue to increase the general maturity of the public debt, in other words, to ensure that it is financed at low rates for a longer time.

  • Mario Draghi: Interview in Die Zeit
    Mario Draghi: Interview in Die Zeit Interview with Mr Mario Draghi, President of the European Central Bank, in Die Zeit, conducted by Mr Giovanni di Lorenzo on 17 December 2014, published on 15 January 2015. * * * You have a clear-cut reputation. Luca di Montezemolo, the former CEO of FIAT and Ferrari who attended the same school as you in Rome, said that you were always the most competent and serious one – Mario, the prize pupil. He exaggerates. I’ve never regarded myself as the best. Most certainly not. I went to school because I was sent there. But you may have felt the burden of responsibility more than others: you lost your father at the age of fifteen, and your mother passed away only a little later. You were suddenly a very young head of family. I can remember when, as a 16-year-old, I came back from holidays at the sea with a friend. He went home and could do what he liked. I, by contrast, was confronted with a stack of letters that I had to deal with, bills that had to be paid. But young people do not reflect on what they have to deal with and how they should do so. They simply get on with it. That is important, that is what prevents them from becoming depressed even in adverse circumstances. They perhaps also understand at an early stage what they must do to survive, for example, work hard. Belief in hard work was something that my parents taught us. My father used to say that work is the most important element in any person’s life.

  • Joint Letter to President Anastasiades of Cyprus Concerning Laundering of Massive Criminal Schemes by Corrupt Russian
    His Excellency Nicos Anastasiades President of the Republic of Cyprus Strasbourg, 26 October 2017 Dear President Anastasiades, We write to you with grave concern about the role that corrupt Russian government officials are playing in Cyprus in relation to the laundering of massive criminal schemes coming from Russia. We are equally concerned that while Cyprus is neglecting its duties under the European Directives to combat money laundering, the Cypriot Government is actively assisting the Russian government in furthering human rights violations through assistance with politically motivated prosecutions, in contravention of its obligations under European Conventions. While there are many examples, the most recent one that exemplifies this situation best is the Magnitsky case and the Russian proceedings against Mr Browder, the head of the Global Magnitsky Justice movement. As you are probably aware, in 2008 Sergei Magnitsky uncovered a $230 million Russian government corruption scheme, exposed it and was then falsely arrested by some of the implicated officials, tortured and killed in the Russian Interior Ministry custody. The European Parliament along with many other European institutions has fought for the last eight years to get justice for Sergei Magnitsky. In 2014, this Parliament unanimously passed a resolution calling on the EU to sanction people involved in Mr Magnitsky’s arrest and killing and the corruption and money laundering that he had uncovered. We are surprised and disheartened to learn that since then: Cyprus has not conducted
