Top Ten Questions To Ask About Spain's Bailout

London, UK - 10th June 2012, 11:10 GMT

Dear ATCA Open & Philanthropia Friends

[Please note that the views presented by individual contributors are not necessarily representative of the views of ATCA, which is neutral. ATCA conducts collective Socratic dialogue on global opportunities and threats.]

1. Recapitalisation of Banks: Will the commissioned bank auditors and global markets conclude that €100bn is enough to recapitalise Spanish banks?

2. Access to Sovereign Debt Markets: Will Spain continue to have access to markets to be able to sell its government bonds post ts first banking bailout?

3. Flight of Capital: With capital flooding out of Spain's banks, is a €100bn tranche likely to be enough to prevent further bailouts of its banks and government at a later date?

4. Source of Cash: Analysts in financial markets across the globe will be asking themselves where precisely is the cash going to come from to help Spain?

5. No Cash Left: Where else is the Eurozone likely to go wrong in its risk management calculus before the limited money in the common funds runs out?

6. Euphoria: Is the rise in market indices in the wake of Spain’s bailout going to be short-lived just as soon as the markets realise that the Eurozone recession is not going to go away and the Greek election results may be unsatisfactory?

7. Eurozone Growth: With the US and emerging market economies like China and India slowing down fast, how can Europe grow its way out of this crisis?

8. Italy: Post Spain's bailout could the markets target the next major incumbent? Could Italy -- often seen as the next domino to fall -- be under full attack?

9. Non-Equivalence: Will citizens and governments in Greece, Ireland and Portugal be infuriated when they realise that Spain will face few of the harsh economic conditions imposed on them -- including cutting wages, slashing spending and selling off public assets -- in return for a Eurozone bailout?

10. Addressing Root Cause: Does this bailout fully address the source of the problem that Spain has, which has resulted in 25+% general unemployment and 50+% youth unemployment?
