Operation Leakspin: BANKING CRISIS NOW ONE OF SOLVENCY NOT LIQUIDITY SAYS BANK OF ENGLAND GOVERNOR Since last summer, the nature of the crisis in financial markets has changed. The problem is now not liquidity in the system but rather a question of systemic solvency, Bank of England (BOE) Governor Mervyn King said at a lunch meeting with Treasury Deputy Secretary Robert Kimmitt and Ambassador Tuttle. King said there are two imperatives. First to find ways for banks to avoid the stigma of selling unwanted paper at distressed prices or going to a central bank for assistance. Second to ensure there's a coordinated effort to possibly recapitalize the global banking system. For the first imperative, King suggested developing a pooling and auction process to unblock the large volume of financial investments for which there is currently no market. For the second imperative, King suggested that the US, UK, Switzerland, and perhaps Japan might form a temporary new group to jointly develop an effort to bring together sources of capital to recapitalize all major banks.

Health Costs Threaten NB Solvency New Brunswick must begin arresting the dramatic growth in health-care spending or the province may risk becoming insolvent, says a former health minister. Dennis Furlong, a family doctor in Dalhousie and a former Progressive Conservative health minister, says in an ***ysis for CBC News that politicians and voters must stop the normal election debate over health funding. "We need to stop hearing promises of more spending," Furlong writes. "We need to start hearing politicians say, 'Vote for me I will make sure health care is sustained by not overfeeding it with money.'" When Furlong was named minister of health and wellness in 1999, the department's budget was $1.5 billion. The New Brunswick government is budgeting $2.46 billion for health spending in 2010-11, almost a $1 billion increase in 11 years. 'Simply put, if we don't control health-care costs we won't be able to control provincial solvency.'— Dr. Dennis Furlong The upward trajectory of health spending is also increasing cost pressures on other parts of the provincial budget. While the Department of Health drains the most provincial dollars annually, the province's debt payments are the fourth biggest item in the budget, costing taxpayers an estimated $625 million in 2010-11. Without halting the growth of health funding now, Furlong writes the New Brunswick government could face even tougher financial decisions, especially if interest rates go up as debt payments will balloon faster. "Simply put, if we don't ...
