ECB has means to address instability and will avoid repo spirals, Daniela Gabor notes
ECB prepared to avoid repo spirals

Daniela Gabor said the European Central Bank (ECB) has the necessary instruments to manage sovereign instability and will not risk triggering repo spirals in order to satisfy fiscal hawks.

Gabor cited the ECB's experience during 2009–2012 when Jean-Claude Trichet led the institution, suggesting lessons have been learned from that period.

Gabor has previously credited Zoltan Pozsar's work in unpacking shadow banking and balance sheets in finance. She also observed the Burnham government tracking Bailey's fiscal interventions, including the 2022 Truss reversal and Active QT, in a separate post detailing government attention to monetary policy shifts. These engagements reflect her ongoing focus on the intersection of central bank actions and financial market dynamics.
