Paper Topic

The grade in my Banking Regulation Seminar will be decided by a paper on a topic chosen by me.  In that I have a new burning interest in all things european, I thought I'll write about european banking.  Pretty fancy i know.  However european banking is no smaller a field than american banking, so I must narrow further.

A natural dovetail from european banking could be the ECB, or European Central Bank.  All I know of this bank is it manages monetary policy for the eurozone, is headed by the Jean-Claude Trichet (ok i had to wiki that) and is at least vaguely similar to the Federal Reserve.  Too much else is beyond my capabilities right now.  I am pretty confident they can raise prime? rates and the like.  

A work in progress...
