This man is risking your money!

The frontpage of German magazine Focus features a picture of ECB President Jean-Claude Trichet, with the headline: "This man is risking your money". The article argues that "the interest rate time-bomb is ticking: central banks endanger prosperity". The magazine wonders whether the ECB will become a "bad bank" itself, arguing that its ongoing low interest rates, junk bond purchases and aid to private banks harm savers and investors.
