ECB agrees new crisis tool to ease bond market stress

Description

The European Central Bank unveils a new crisis-fighting tool to keep the borrowing costs of indebted eurozone governments like Italy under control as interest rates rise for the first time in a decade. Dubbed the "Transmission Protection Instrument (TPI)", the targeted bond-buying scheme "can be activated to counter unwarranted, disorderly market dynamics that pose a serious threat to the transmission of monetary policy across the euro area," says ECB President Christine Lagarde.
