Wolfgang Schaeuble Sits Down for a Rare Interview

Those who are in-the-know about investment services and general world financial matters have probably heard of Wolfgang Schaeuble. Schaeuble is the current German Finance Minister, and he recently sat down for a rare interview with world news leader CNN. The interview, surprisingly, was conducted in English, and despite the fact that English isn’t Schaeuble’s native language, he made his opinions incredibly clear. He admitted that the financial problems affecting the Eurozone were far from being solved but also expressed satisfaction with recent improvements and a belief that things would change for the better with time. Schaeuble even went so far as to comment that he did not see any future bailouts as likely.

Schaeuble bravely expressed his opinion about the upcoming elections as well. He voiced strong faith in Chancellor Merkel and said that, if Merkel was re-elected, he believed that working toward a stronger Europe would be the next logical step. He was careful to say that he didn’t want a “German” Europe but that he did feel that every state in Europe needed to increase its competitiveness.

Schaeuble explained what he meant by a “stronger Europe” as it relates to finances and general investment services by saying that every state in Europe needed to “do its duty” and not look for help or funds from other states. The timing for Schaeuble’s interview couldn’t have been better since elections are set to be held on September 22—a little more than a month away!
