Outlook for Europe
Ireland, UK, Eastern and Northern Europe in relatively good shape
Majority of sovereign debt is held by domestic and German banks
Therefore debt restructuring will adversely affect already weakened
domestic banks
In the event of a debt restructuring of 30-50%; the worst hit will be
domestic and state-owned German banks*
French banks already experiencing liquidity problems

* Measured impact of a haircut that is greater than
5% of Tier 1 Capital

The next 12-18 months
Banks can only mitigate the effects; unable to eliminate them.
Greater reliance on central bank liquidity & ECB/IMF funding options
Liquidity / Sovereign risk trade-off
The continent will have to become more transparent before we can
hope for stability
Government administration needs to be restructured
