Greeks toss 1 million credit cards



A large number of consumers have been cutting up their credit cards as the recession prompts a change in spending habits, according to recent data from the European Central Bank. The number of credit cards in Greece fell to just over 6 million at the end of 2009, versus 7.04 million at the end of 2008. The downturn has spurred demand for debit cards, which rose by about 1 million in 2009 to 9.1 million, data showed. Growth rates for prepaid cards is also strong, at around 50 percent.

ECB Nowotny Opposes Attempts To Make EFSF Permanent: Press

BERLIN (MNI) - ECB Governing Council member Ewald Nowotny opposes any attempt to make the European Financial Stability Facility (EFSF) permanent, he told German weekly Wirtschaftswoche in an interview published Monday.
The E440 billion EFSF was created earlier this year by EU leaders to assuage markets at the height of the Eurozone's sovereign debt crisis. It would provide emergency loans to EMU states that get into financial trouble and have no other recourse.
Making the EFSF permanent "would not be a good idea," Nowotny, who heads the Austrian National Bank, was quoted as saying.
Still, he said one could discuss a possible prolongation of the EFSF beyond 2013. "If one sees after a while that the states have achieved a lot of reforms then some flexibility is conceivable," he explained. At the moment, however, he said he does not see any need to prolong the fund, not even in the case of Greece, he added.
Regarding the reform of the EU Stability and Growth Pact, Nowotny said he opposed the German proposal for allowing an orderly insolvency of Eurozone member states.
"In theory that may be an interesting concept," he remarked. However, "on the EU level it would not be easy to formalize that and to fit it into the existing rules."
Regarding the recent Basel III agreement on new banking capital regulations, Nowotny warned that national parliaments could still water down the rules. "We must be careful that [the rules] aren't weakened markedly when passed into European and national law," he said.

La Grecia riparte dalle rinnovabili

Sboccati progetti 'verdi' per un totale di 2,1 miliardi di euro

27 settembre, 10:57

Le intenzioni erano chiare già alla fine dello scorso luglio, quando il ministro dell'Ambiente aveva annunciato un importante piano di investimenti pubblico-privati per finanziare il comparto ambiente e le rinnovabili.
Ora la Grecia, che sta cercando faticosamente di lasciarsi alle spalle la pesante eredità della crisi economica, sembra aver fatto un ulteriore passo in avanti, annunciando di aver sboccato progetti 'verdi' per un totale di 2,1 miliardi di euro. Il Paese sta cercando proprio di puntare sul settore della produzione di energia da fonti pulite per attrarre investimenti e cercare di risanare i conti dello Stato, le cui casse sono ancora pesantemente a corto di liquidità, offrendo dei sussidi.
L'Autorità nazionale per l'energia, la Rae, ha annunciato di aver dato il via libera la scorsa settimana all'approvazione di diversi programmi di produzione di energia verde in tutta la nazione, per una capacità totale pari a 840 megawatt, e ha promesso anche di accelerare tutte le procedure di concessione per la realizzazione di ulteriori progetti.
Sebbene la Grecia sia uno tra i Paesi più ventosi e soleggiati in Europa, l'energia eolica e solare prodotta sul territorio nazionale è solo il 4% del totale, mentre più del 60% dell'energia è ancora prodotta dalla combustione della lignite, una delle varietà più inquinanti di carbone.
L'obiettivo del governo greco è arrivare ad una produzione del 40% di energia pulita entro il 2020.
