歐洲將拉響新的警報
????要在重點(diǎn)地區(qū)計劃(包括為貨幣聯(lián)盟補(bǔ)充更強(qiáng)大的財政和銀行聯(lián)盟以及更緊密的政治一體化)上獲得進(jìn)展、確保幾個具體成員國形成更好的宏觀經(jīng)濟(jì)/結(jié)構(gòu)政策組合,相關(guān)方面需要重新做出努力。 ????我們覺得歐洲委員會的預(yù)測仍然過于樂觀,意味著采取行動的緊迫性更大。例如,太平洋投資管理公司(PIMCO)預(yù)計歐元區(qū)經(jīng)濟(jì)今年可能萎縮1-1.5%,而不是歐洲委員會預(yù)測的僅萎縮0.6%。 ????重要的是,政界應(yīng)該利用當(dāng)前歐洲央行的橋梁作用,現(xiàn)在就采取行動,讓公民對經(jīng)濟(jì)的顯著好轉(zhuǎn)抱有更大希望。否則,政策性挑戰(zhàn)將與日俱增,歐元區(qū)將面臨越來越多的涉及經(jīng)濟(jì)、金融、政治和社會因素的破壞性惡性循環(huán)。 ????如果歐洲的政治家們要等到出現(xiàn)更深的危機(jī)才去利用歐洲央行提供的寶貴機(jī)會,那將是一個極大的恥辱,而且會是悲劇性的恥辱。 ????穆罕默德?埃爾-埃利安是太平洋投資管理公司首席執(zhí)行官兼聯(lián)席首席投資官。他還是美國全球發(fā)展署的負(fù)責(zé)人。(財富中文網(wǎng)) ????譯者:默默 |
????A renewed effort is needed to make progress on key regional initiatives (including supplementing monetary union with greater fiscal and banking union and closer political integration) and in ensuring a better macro-economic/structural policy mix in several individual countries. ????This urgent call for action is amplified by what we feel are still overly optimistic EC projections. For example, PIMCO projects the eurozone could contract by 1 – 1.5% this year rather than the EC's 0.6%. ????It is essential that politicians take advantage of the current ECB bridge, acting now to provide citizens with greater hope of a significant turnaround. Absent that, policy challenges will mount, and the eurozone will face a growing number of disruptive feedback loops involving economic, financial, political and social factors. ????It would be a great shame – indeed tragic – if European politicians were to wait for a deeper crisis in order to make use of the valuable opportunity afforded to them by the ECB. ????Mohamed El-Erian is the CEO and co-chief investment officer of PIMCO. He also heads the U.S. global development council. |
