Spain's Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy at a news conference earlier this year.
CHICAGO (MarketWatch) — Spanish Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy on Saturday called for the establishment of a central authority that would oversee and coordinate fiscal policy in the euro zone, according to media reports.
Rajoy said the creation of the authority would be the answer to the European debt crisis and would send a signal to investors that the single currency is irreversible, according to a report from Reuters.
“I have good reasons to say that these problems of the monetary union are going to start to be solved in not very much time.”
Rajoy acknowledged that individual nations would have to cede some of their fiscal independence to such a new authority, according to news reports.
