PEERS & MARKETS
The week from 24 to 28 September 2012 was a difficult one for the major international Exchanges (Milan -5.6%, London -1.9%, Frankfurt -3.2%, -5.0% Paris, Madrid -6.3%) due to fears of a further economic slowdown. Both Standard & Poor’s and Fitch lowered its 2012 GDP estimates in Asia – the main engine of economic growth – while in Europe the focus has been on the strength of the Spanish banking system with stress tests that showed a need for capital of 59.3 billion euro.
