10:51 am
impression that there is maybe to deflect the attention from concentration of a tensions on italy at this juncture. that if the market decides today the ecb executive board member struck a more cautious tone, he said it was up to the markets to assess whether the italian government had done enough to address this view of nonperforming loans. if it is up to the markets, yet the set of performers for the italian shares in recent months tells us that investors are still concerned. yes, investors are still concerned. i can see that. i think it is not a very good moment for the banking industry in general.

will say more than that, seeking to establish strong, constructive relationships of friendships does not mean at all orsell out or to unbundle dilute existing structure of the eu market, which has a coherence of its own. -- pick and to be choose selectively. mark: was sort of model do you prefer? relationship do you envision between the u.k. and the eu? can the u.k. maintain access to the single market? under what sort of conditions? well, if one says conditions ,imilar to the one for norway
10:55 am
maybe the u.k., given their might resent.just but i think it is a very --gmatic condition, namely for the u.k. who largely invented the european single market. and i go further, it was largely the british conservative party .hat invented it , i do not think it will be possible to just subscribe to some of the freedoms of the single market and not others. for example, this is not a matter for ideology but suppose the u.k. were to ask in the eu were to concede.
