IMF:ECB Weber:Only Seeing Green Shoots, Downside Risks Remain
ISTANBUL -(Dow Jones)- Recent positive signs in the global economy are too fragile for policy makers to assume growth has resumed, European Central Bank governing council member Axel Weber said Tuesday.
"We're only seeing green shoots...downside risks remain," Weber, who is also German Bundesbank president, said in a speech to the International Monetary Fund's board of governors at the IMF/World Bank annual meetings in Istanbul.
Fiscal and monetary stimulus measures adopted to combat the sharpest global recession in decades shouldn't be unwound at this point, said Weber.
Existing stimulus measures should remain in place until a recovery is clearly in sight, he added.

Bank Of Spain Gov: Spain Economy Could Suffer A Long Slump
MADRID -(Dow Jones)- Spain's economy will likely recover later than others in Europe and could suffer a prolonged slump unless there are ambitious reforms, Bank of Spain Governor Miguel Angel Fernandez Ordonez said Tuesday.
In annual parliamentary testimony on the government's budget proposal for the following year, Fernandez Ordonez said tax and spending reforms are needed to rein in Spain's spiraling budget deficit.
