Wednesday 8 October 2008 - A solution. Needs to be globalPresented by Paul Donovan+ The UK plan to bail out banks is different from previous efforts around the world. It injects capital, it does not liquefy assets. It seems systemic, not bank specific. It must now be complemented by aggressive interest rate cuts to assist borrowers.+ Economies are showing early signs of the consequences of the credit chaos. US consumer credit collapsed - for August. The US state is having to bypass banks in the commercial paper market. Saudi Arabia is pledging liquidity to its domestic markets, as irrationality trumps petrodollars.+ There is only one end game. Public sector money MUST be used to recapitalise banks. Support for banks MUST be systemic. Interest rates MUST be cut to facilitate borrower balance sheet repair. That includes the ECB.+ Above all else governments must listen to economists. Bad things happen if economists are ignored. If we do not get action swiftly, very bad things indeed are going to happen to the global economy.
