☆ EU, US must address concerns over U.S. inflation act - German fin min

BERLIN, Nov 7 (Reuters) - Germany wants dialogue with Washington rather than tit-for-tat measures to ease trade tensions triggered by the U.S Inflation Reduction Act, which could harm European businesses and industry, Germany's finance minister said on Monday. Christian Lindner said a task force set up between the United States and the European Union should address the issue urgently. "In everyone's interest, we will not enter a tit-for-tat but rather strengthen the sources of wealth and growth together," he added. Earlier on Monday, French Finance Minister Bruno Le Maire said the law was a major threat to European companies and that the EU must stand firm against it.

☆ Germany needs billions to solve its energy crisis, but buyers are shunning its bonds

LONDON, Oct 27 (Reuters) - Germany, considered Europe's most reliable debtor, is having trouble selling its bonds, just as it seeks billions to tackle the energy crisis. Hit hard by its over-reliance on Russian energy, Germany intends to borrow particularly large amounts in the coming years, with Parliament last week voting to suspend the constitutional debt brake that limits new borrowing. France's finance agency, in contrast, issued 10 billion euros of medium term bonds on Oct. 20 into strong demand. VOLATILITY HURTS AUCTIONSThe uncertainty around borrowing and QT has increased volatility in euro zone bond markets, already rocked by the knock-on effects from Britain's now-scrapped plans for large unfunded tax cuts. Volatility is deterring the banks that act as dealers for German bonds from bidding in debt auctions, Tammo Diemer, head of the country's finance agency, said at an event on Tuesday.
☆ Germany upsizes 54 bln euros in bonds to use in repo market, help fund energy spending

Oct 19 (Reuters) - Germany's finance agency said on Wednesday it had increased the size of 18 outstanding bonds by 3 billion euros each to use in the repo market and provide flexibility to cover financing needs arising from the energy crisis. The increase, 54 billion euros in total, was done for bonds that the agency said were in high demand. The increases will also provide the German government with flexibility to cover financing needs arising from the energy crisis, the finance agency said. The finance agency can increase such operations to support the smooth functioning of markets and did so earlier this year, when it also upsized a bond in the aftermath of Ukraine's invasion.

Inflation can bring that foundation to erosion," Lindner said in Washington. Speaking alongside Bundesbank President Joachim Nagel, Lindner said Germany has the means to address its weaknesses, including by investing in alternative energy resources. China has argued it would not take part in some cases unless the IMF and World Bank also took a haircut. "I have used the opportunity again to remind creditors, in particular China, of their own responsibility," Lindner said. It's regrettable that China did not accept the invitation to participate in the G7 roundtable with African countries.

"Inflation is the biggest danger for our economic foundation, inflation can bring that foundation to erosion," Lindner said in Washington.

Speaking alongside Bundesbank President Joachim Nagel, Lindner said German growth had slipped behind other countries because it was especially vulnerable to Europe's energy crisis and supply chain disruptions.
