欧洲央行还能对付另一大动力，即主权债务融资不足的问题，办法是降低贴现率，鼓励受困政府发行国债，同时鼓励银行认购（这个想法源自托马索·帕多阿-斯基奥帕（Tommaso Padoa-Schioppa ） ） 。
The ECB could deal with the other driving force, the lack of financing for sovereign debt, by lowering its discount rate, encouraging distressed governments to issue treasury bills, and encouraging the banks to subscribe (an idea I owe to Tommaso Padoa-Schioppa).
