Merkel versus<\/em> Goldman-Sachs<\/h4>\n

Quelque peu agac\u00e9e par l’article du New York Times<\/em> d\u00e9crivant en grands d\u00e9tails l’action de Goldman-Sachs vis-\u00e0-vis de la Gr\u00e8ce, jusqu’aux plus r\u00e9cents \u00e9v\u00e9nements (voir dans cette rubrique, au 16 f\u00e9vrier 2010<\/a>), la chanceli\u00e8re allemande Angela Merkel a jug\u00e9 n\u00e9cessaire, sinon de son devoir, de d\u00e9noncer cette pratique. (Selon EUObserver<\/em>, ce 18 f\u00e9vrier 2010<\/a>.)<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\t\u00abGerman Chancellor Angela Merkel has strongly criticised investment banks who allegedly helped Greece to mask the true extent of its mounting debt pile over the years from EU monitors.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\t\u00bbIt would be a disgrace if it turned out to be true that banks that already pushed us to the edge of the abyss were also party to falsifying Greek statistics, said Ms Merkel during a speech in north-eastern Germany.<\/em>\u00bb<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\tLa Commission europ\u00e9enne, entrain\u00e9e par le mouvement et par la lecture de l’article, s’est \u00e9galement \u00e9mue et a d\u00e9cid\u00e9 de r\u00e9agir en agitant le r\u00e8glement. (\u00abThe European Commission has given Athens until this Friday to provide further details on the deal as it seeks to determine whether EU rules were broken.<\/em>\u00bb) Idem<\/em> pour le Commissaire Barnier, mais lui dans un contexte plus large qui concerne le r\u00f4le des sp\u00e9culateurs dans ce qu’aucuns jugent aujourd’hui \u00e0 propos de nommer la crise de l’euro.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\t\u00bbAdding to the anger of lawmakers is the role similar banks have played in destabilising the eurozone by betting on a fall in the value of the euro or on the likelihood of Greek sovereign default.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\t\u00bbPoliticians in EU countries such as France, Germany, Spain and Greece have attacked the speculating activities of hedge-funds and banks in recent weeks. In particular, they point to the dangerous role played by credit default swaps, insurance-like contracts that pay out when an issuer defaults, and rise in value as credit conditions deteriorate. On Tuesday, EU internal market commissioner Michel Barnier said a closer look at the effects of such instruments needed to be carried out.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\t\u00bbGoldman Sachs is among the main group of speculators that has sought to profit from the ongoing market doubts over the Greek economy, notes the influential Coulisses de Bruxelles blog, highlighting the dual role aider and attacker’ played by the investment bank.<\/em>\u00bb<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
