Episode notes
Europe's Fragmented Financial Market
- Europe has a fragmented financial market compared to the US, lacking integration in banking and insolvency laws.
- This fragmentation prevents Europe from having a deep, liquid capital market competitive with the US.
The 28th Regime Concept
- The 28th regime is a proposed virtual legal jurisdiction in Europe for companies to incorporate.
- It would provide a standardized, seamless access to the European market without being tied to any single country's rules.
Joint Borrowing with Blue Bonds
- Joint European borrowing via 'blue bonds' could replace some national debt and create a common borrowing framework.
- This framework could increase market liquidity and potentially rival US Treasury issuance.
