In the United Kingdom, the UK Telegraph reports that analysts are highly critical of the Bank of England's handling of the Britain's banking sector and warned that Bank and Government policies have left major lenders vulnerable if the Eurozone debt crisis spreads to the UK.
Meanwhile in Ireland, the Telegraph recently reported that the Central Bank of Ireland wrote to chief executives at the Bank of Ireland, Irish Life & Permanent and EBS Building Society last month that it may hold an investigation into the Irish banking crisis. The UK Telegraph cites reports from Ireland, that the Central Bank will appoint an independent arbitrator -- likely to be a retired judge or a senior lawyer -- over the next few week to decide whether the executives should remain in their jobs.

The IMF's top economist said Friday that banks holding Greek debt could be forced to take larger writedowns than planned because of Athens' weaker-than-expected finances. The IMF is reportedly losing confidence that Greece's bailout can succeed, Der Spiegel said, said, citing an internal International Monetary Fund document that concludes the country needs either speedier fiscal reform, a bigger reduction on its debt, or another bailout. IMF experts plan to adjust key points of the current rescue plan as part of the next Troika mission, set to start in mid-January, the magazine said.
