Abstract

The so called ‘capital key’ used by the European Central Bank is due to be reviewed, with two important meetings coming up on 6 and 13 December. Sebastian Diessner explains that while in the past this has been viewed as a largely technical process, this time around the issue will have heightened political significance for two reasons in particular: the UK’s upcoming departure from the EU, and the current stand-off between the EU’s institutions and Italy’s government.
