Quote:
German banks have borrowed heavily from the European Central Bank's liquidity window, taking up 46pc of the total €430bn in December, although they account for just 26pc of the eurozone's asset base.

The escalating credit crisis in Europe comes amid ever clearer signs of an economic downturn. Industrial production in the eurozone fell 0.2pc in December, with a plunge of 4pc in Italy.


If Europes own subprime in Eastern Europe delivers a second hit here, Europe may well take a knock out punch it cant get up from...
