🧵 The digitalisation of finance has broadened payment options, with emerging fintechs, big techs and cryptos causing disruptions, says Executive Board member Fabio Panetta at the @bundesbank. We need to preserve an anchor of stability for the monetary and payments systems.

1/4
Panetta: Safeguarding this anchor is what our digital euro project is all about. We want to ensure that central bank money remains available to everyone in the euro area. But we also need to modernise the payment infrastructure underpinning our financial system.

2/4
Panetta: Central bank money already exists in digital form for wholesale purposes. Wholesale central bank digital currency projects are about making digital interbank transactions, such as securities settlement and cross-currency payments, safer and more efficient.

🧵 We must be prudent, recognising what we can do, but also what we cannot do, Executive Board member Fabio Panetta tells @LaStampa. We have limited room to cool imported inflation but we must prevent the rise in inflation from becoming entrenched.

1/4 Image
Panetta: With medium-term inflation around 2%, we can gradually reduce stimulus.
But we must remain data-driven. It would be unwise to act without fully understanding how the war and global factors will affect inflation, demand and production. Uncertainty is enormous

2/4
Panetta: We must prevent monetary adjustment from being accompanied by higher financial fragmentation. If the latter impedes monetary policy transmission, we should intervene decisively, building on the success of our pandemic purchase programme and the Next Generation EU

The Russian invasion of Ukraine has cast a dark shadow over our continent, says Vice-President Luis de Guindos as he presents our 2021 Annual Report to the @Europarl_EN

Speech ecb.europa.eu/press/key/date…
Annual Report ecb.europa.eu/pub/annual/htm…

1/4
De Guindos: The war in Ukraine is above all a human tragedy causing enormous suffering. But it is also affecting the economy in Europe. Growth will be slower than expected and inflation is likely to remain high in the coming months

2/4
De Guindos: The war has also exposed major strategic vulnerabilities in Europe, including our dependency on fossil fuel imports. Speeding up the green transition is therefore crucial

🧵 Globally coordinated efforts are needed to bring crypto-assets into a regulatory framework, says Executive Board member Fabio Panetta at @Columbia. We must not repeat past mistakes by waiting for the bubble to burst before acting ecb.europa.eu/press/key/date…

1/5
Panetta: Unbacked crypto-assets can’t even fulfil their objective of facilitating payments, since they are too volatile to perform as money. We must decide how to regulate them, seeking a balance between innovation, financial stability and consumer protection

2/5
Panetta: Crypto-assets already have a larger market than sub-prime mortgages had before the global financial crisis started. The longer we wait, the more exposures and vested interests build up. And the harder it will be to act
