| 06:16 EDT |  | BLK, DB | Big money managers: Slowing U.S. economy concerns overblown, Bloomberg reports
Money managers at firms overseeing over $8T said investor concern that the U.S. economy will slow as Obama and Congress fail to avert $607B in tax increases and spending cuts next year are overblown, reports Bloomberg. These investors say the rout that erased $1T from the value of global equities after President Obama's reelection overlooks the fact that the world economy is improving while U.S. leaders start discussions that may avoid the so-called fiscal cliff.

| 12:32 EDT |  | DB | EU bank stress test delayed until 2014 by regulator
The EBA agreed on recommendations to supervisors to conduct asset quality reviews on major EU banks. While banks’ capital positions were significantly strengthened under the EBA’s recapitalisation exercise, the objective of the asset quality exercises will be to review banks’ classifications and valuations of their assets so to help dispel concerns over the deterioration of asset quality due to macroeconomic conditions in Europe. Since appropriately reviewed balance sheets are a key input to an effective stress test, the EBA has also adjusted the timeline of the next EU-wide stress test so to conduct the exercise in 2014 once the asset quality reviews are completed. However, to ensure transparency and comparability over the years, the EBA will provide, in 2H, appropriate disclosure on the actual exposures of the EU banking sector. Reference Link |
