The TPI will provide short-term liquidity to banks that are experiencing difficulties accessing funding in the market.

Christine Lagarde, Managing Director of the ECB, has praised the TPI as an important step in strengthening the euro area’s crisis response mechanisms. She stated that the TPI will help ensure that banks have access to liquidity during periods of market stress.

These are the four criteria for activating the IPT for a country:

  1. That the country complies with EU tax requirements, that it adapts.
  2. Absence of severe macroeconomic imbalances.
  3. Sustainable debt trajectory.
