How effective is Spain’s new fiscal authority on Euro

Another country determined to release the Euro zone from the debt crisis is Spain. Spain is all set to declare a new fiscal authority aimed at controlling and orchestrating national budgets while managing European debts. Due to the emergence of European debt crisis, Spain faces the risks of an international bailout putting it in a situation that has arisen from overspending and troubles with the banking sector during the property crash four years ago. This has resulted into high borrowing costs for Spain.

In order to accommodate this overspending behaviour and curbing its over-expenditure, Spain has taken certain harsh steps that include tax hikes, slash spending, cutting down the social benefits and bailing out the troubled banks.

Senior analysts’ have also opined that the euro zone should quickly move towards a fiscal union to complete its 13-year monetary union.

According to the Spanish PM Mariano Rajoy the fiscal authority would manage European debts and also advises that the other countries of the Euro zone should also contribute towards the fiscal authority meeting strict conditions. Even though the creation of a fiscal authority was proposed earlier as well, however with the initiation from Spain- one of the biggest countries of the Euro zone- may now accelerate talks.

The introduction of the fiscal authority is benevolent in nature which requires certain changes in the European Union treaties, that includes lengthy and politically excruciating processes which further requests ratification in the 27 member states of the bloc (EU).

Germany, the leading paymasters of Euro zone, has proposed that before initiating the fiscal authority there are other avenues which needs to be investigated and further integration in Europe is required which also consists of inclusion of additional controls on national public finances.

Spain facing the staggering debt crisis in its banking sector is the main focus of investigation before applying the fiscal authority. This builds the foundation of creating a banking union in Europe based on centralized supervision, a European deposit scheme and a central fund that would cope with failed lenders.

Spain’s banking sector is under review which is being audited by independent auditors and according the Prime Minister Rajoy, once the audit is complete, government would say before the end of June on how it will recapitalize Spain’s troubled banking sector.
