JPY. Though the Japan government are confident that problems with Lehman don't much harm directly to the Japanese economy, but consequences will be fatal. In the country identical pressure of economic descending risks and the inflationary ascending is still saved. The wages average level in Japan has grown on 0.3 % in July in comparison with  similar period of last year. The registered growth of an indicator has appeared minimum for last 7 months that testifies to unwillingness of the companies payment increase. So also the consumer demand will be reduced also.

However all these encouraging statements have grown dull after comments of the Eurozone Finance Minister chairman Junker. He has declared that “considering specificity of a monetary and Eurozone credit policy, monetary injections will be not so are effective, as in the USA”. Besides, despite decreasing risks, inflation in the Eurozone remains high. Base growth of inflation, without the prices for fuel and a foodstuff has grown to 2,6 % y/y in August with 2.5 %y/y month earlier while growth of the general inflation has fallen to 3.8 %, from 4.0 % in July. But this all signals for the future correction for now crisis in the USA allows to become stronger euro to other currencies.

CHF. The Switzerland National Bank Vice-president Phillip Hildebrand has declared that the Swiss banks should increase the capitalisation for the best world financial cresis opposition. Recent examples have shown that the Central Banks play the important role in simplification of some current credit crisis negative effects. Commercial banks should improve own levels of the brave capital as the financial sector occupies Switzerland economy important part. Earlier legislators have rejected the offered number of measures on increase in a bank regulator powers as it could worsen competitiveness of local banks. Despite importance of this point in question for Switzerland banks it is necessary to notice that the theme so sharply discussed practically is not connected with current crisis.
