Spain makes formal request for EU funds to recapitalize ailing banks
Spain has formally requested aid for its ailing banking sector on Monday. 36.5 billion euros of bailout funds, including 2.5 billion euros for the “bad bank”, are due to be released on December 12. Four nationalized Spanish banks will be the recipients of the funds: 18 billion will go to Bankia; 9 billion to CatalunyaBanc, 5 billion to Nova Caixa Galicia; 4.5 billion to Banco de Valencia. The release of the aid is expected to be approved by the Eurogroup during their monthly meeting today in the European afternoon.
Even though it is not the full sovereign bailout request awaited by the markets, the news caused the euro to spike to the 1.3075 region, a new six-week high against the dollar. – FXstreet.com
