The letter from the European Union's executive arm to Italy's Finance Minister Pier Carlo Padoan is part of the Commission's responsibilities to check if the main assumptions of euro zone governments budgets are in line with EU law.

Truth on trade: How much do China, Japan and America trade with the EU?
A POPULAR idea is floating around certain circles: that you do not need a deep trade deal with the EU in order to trade with them in a significant way. For instance, Guido Fawkes, a blog, points out that each year China trades with the EU to the value of half a trillion dollars. But China is not in the single market and so does not have to accept annoying rules and regulations. Japan trades a lot with the EU, but is not in the single market and does not have to accept free move -

ECB's easy collateral policy may ricochet on Dutch taxpayer - paper
The European Central Bank's easy stance on bank collateral, part of its response to the euro zone's financial crisis, might leave the Dutch government footing the bill for a pile of unpaid mortgages, an academic paper has found. The paper, discussed at an ECB conference this week, said the ECB's 2012 decision to accept lower-rated bundles of residential loans as collateral led Dutch banks to extend more mortgages at lower interest rates, package them and sell them off. While this might have been -

Ireland joins queue to prise industry watchdogs from London after Brexit
Ireland put itself forward on Tuesday as the latest candidate to lure the European Medicines Agency (EMA) and the European Banking Authority (EBA) should they uproot from London after Britain's vote to leave the European Union.
