The European Union Central Bank finally decides to help the declining economy
The European Union (EU) Central Bank (ECB) decided to stimulate stagnant European economy through a program to buy $1.3 Trillion worth of bonds. This program is similar to the U.S. Federal Reserve initiative which we know as Quantitative Easing (Q.E.).
The ECB will start to purchase $70 Billion worth of bonds per month starting March 2015 until September 2016. ECB also mentioned that it may continue the Q.E. beyond 2016 if the economic conditions does not improve. Investors were impressed by the ECB move.
The first US Quantitative Easing, also known as QE1, started mid-2008 after the last recession due to bad banking loan crisis. The amount ranged from $600 Billion to $1.25 Trillion. But just a few months later in 2010 Greece debt problemkicked off the real risk ofEuropean Union (EU)economy getting impacted by theGreece, Spain, Portugal, Italy, and Ireland debt threat. The US Federal Reserve initiated the second Quantitative Easing, also known as QE2, in the amount of $600 Billion. Then in September 2012, Feds added the QE3 in the amount of $85 Billion every quarter until the economic condition improves and unemployment rate is below 6.5%.
Since then US economy has come out of recession and now economy is growing. Accordingly the US Federal Reserve did not see the need to continue this program and gradually started to reduce the QE which we came to know as "Tapering."
We will have to see if the EU following on the US Federal Reserve tried path also works for it.
