but isn't this already happening when we see protests like the yellow vests in france burning banks debt burning the bank of france we see elvis asked just a pairing in london for the first time we sing this global insurrection against banker occupation so isn't the result of this faulty monetary policy happening right now out there what i think it is the problem is that the people who are protesting don't actually understand money they don't understand extra problem and that is that everybody is leftwing profit is a deficit worse they just go no way to go intellectually in terms of understanding the condition that their government has put them it and asked for yellow vests i think stacy very kindly treated something earlier that there's a best protest in london but i think it's more to do with abortion not all rusted i mean these are crazy it's basically i sympathize with them because nobody likes to be rocked but you know at least try and understand what is going on that's my message to the yellow vests or right and to your point there for a second they yeah. well of vast and other protest movements aroun

guy: one of the other big stories we are focusing on is deutsche bank in commerzbank getting together, the lack of profitability in the european banking sector, the governor of the bank of france has been talking about this a little bit. needs to haveecb a more wholesale look at what is going on in the rate structure and the unintended consequences in terms of transmission? krishna: they are looking fresh and all of this stuff. i have some sympathy for the ecb view, which is there are lots of reasons why european banks are not profitable and low interest rates are not the only thing. the difference between rates that are marginally negative or barely above zero, depending on the slope of the curve may not be dramatic in terms of their impact on the viability and profitability of european banks. my own view is they have to look at this not for the sake of the banks, but for the sake of their own credibility. right now, people look at them and say you are maxed out because you cannot do anything more because you will screw the banks. i think that even from the classic monetary policy perspective, they have to say here is how we can deliver whatever level of stimulus is required

anna: what role with low interest rates in europe -- a lot of people talked yesterday that bank mergers might cut costs. the bank of franceernor talking about how low interest rates may be part of the problem in terms of generating growth. kokou: i think this is where -- the big theme is going into the same lost decade we saw japan go through? europe has not really gotten out of its excessive liquidity and negative interest rate environment. this ultimately is a drag on the private sector to invest. it means government suck up a lot of the investment in the private sector so you don't have a lot of investment by companies, etc. interest rates ultimately are in indicator of long-term growth prospects. unless we have structural reforms, it will be very difficult to unleash the growth potential of european equities. anna: thank you very much for your time today. kokou, global head of flows strategy and solutions. let's have a look at where we are on the european equity story. 8:26 in london. pretty much unchanged in paris and berlin. london come a little bit stronger. that leads a little strength to the stoxx 600, just up 18

of negative interest rates on banks. he spoke exclusively to bloomberg in france. >> basically our policy has not changed. we have these foreign guidance which basically says the rates are going to stay at present levels through the end of the year. increase where the rates really fell to zero or even negative rates reflects concerns in the market. it's a flight to safety and it reflects concern about the economy in general. it's an indication of uncertainties in the market. >> are you particularly concerned about germany? particularly concerned about germany. i think balance sheets in general, of households and of the state are in good shape. i think it is a country that can absorb a number of shocks. of course on the other side, the german economy is very much depending on manufacturing. manufacturing has been really hit by the international uncertainties related to protectionism and the slowdown in china and also the u.k.. one has to say that the u.k. has been a visible slowdown of investments and germany of course is a big exporter of investment and equipment goods. -- iny has been hit by think the cou

the market from the people's bank of china through reserve cuts and thinks like that you've got the ecb europe continues to slow not obviously is gdp growth in germany and france really weak the upside to the markets is global central bank easing last year 56% of central banks hiked rates and the monetary base contracted. the last time that happened was in 2011, a really tough year u.s. cyclicals, things like energy, materials, technology, they're all 200 to 300 pe points lower than in september's peak even if we pause in the short-term, 6-12 months from now i think we're higher because valuations are more attractive and we do have the central bank easing in the short-term it's a tug of war between fundamentals and an earnings problem. >> where is china if we don't see a trade deal there's this optimism that's really been accelerating is that all predicated on a trade deal >> i think a lot of it is. i think if trade deteriorates from here, both the u.s. and china lose there is no good outcome from a trade war. i think the big risk to the markets is that this trade war is not resolved. that's risk number one let's say we resolve the trade conflict with china an
