From: Ramsey Elkholy To: jeffrey epstein [email protected]> Subject: RE: Date: Thu, 15 Oct 2009 15:10:20 +0000 Importance: Normal the banks here were much more conservative than us w re: to mortgages, loans etc...so they didn't have anything near the problems we had. from a monitary point of view I think Europe has remained more stable than us, especially in Switzerland where the banks had plenty of reserves, so you didn't see banks closing down etc.. Private sector I don't know, people seem to be getting by, the general feeling is that things are starting to pick up again (corporations, small busineses, etc.). the EU in general I would say seems to be a more stable economy than ours.
