LA CRISIS EN ESPAÑA


 El desempleo en España supera el 25% por primera vez en la historia. Casi 5.800.000 españoles no tienen trabajo, según la última Encuesta de Población Activa. En los últimos tres meses, el paro entre quienes pueden trabajar aumentó en 85 mil personas y marcó un nuevo récord

El sector público despidió a 50.000 empleados, la tasa de desempleo en España de la Encuesta de la Población Activa (EPA) superó en el tercer trimestre el umbral del 25% y marcó un nuevo máximo desde el inicio de la serie en 1976, según datos divulgados el viernes por el Instituto Nacional de Estadística (INE).

Según el INE, la tasa de desempleo entre los meses de julio y septiembre subió hasta el 25,02%, frente al 24,63 del trimestre anterior.

El número de desempleados aumentó en el tercer trimestre en 85.000 personas para alcanzar los 5.778.100. Y la ocupación bajó en 96.900 personas en el tercer trimestre a un total de 17.320.300. Entre julio y septiembre se han destruido 96.900 puestos de trabajo.

El número de personas con trabajo, por otra parte, ha descendido a su nivel más bajo desde 2003: 17.320.300 personas.

Ya hay 1.737.900 hogares españoles con todos sus miembros sin trabajo. El desempleo castiga sobre todo a los jóvenes, al alcanzar al 52,3%. Aunque la desocupación ha bajado entre los extranjeros, estos también salen mal parados, pues la tasa de desempleo en su caso sigue estando por encima de la media: el 34,8%.

En los nueve meses que lleva Mariano Rajoy en el Gobierno, el número de desocupados ha aumentado en medio millón de personas (504.500).

A pesar de las reformas laborales, el mercado laboral sigue destruyendo puestos de trabajo: casi 100.000 en los últimos tres meses y 835.900 en el último año.

IMF Completes Fifth Review Under an EFF Arrangement with Portugal, approves €1.5 Billion Disbursement

 
The Executive Board of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) today completed the fifth review of Portugal’s performance under an economic program supported by a 3-year, SDR 23.742 billion (about €28.2 billion) Extended Fund Facility (EFF) arrangement. The completion of the review enables the immediate disbursement of an amount equivalent to SDR 1.259 billion (about about €1.5 billion), bringing total disbursements under the EFF arrangement to SDR 18.402 billion (about €21.8 billion).
The Executive Board also approved a request for waivers of applicability and nonobservance of the end-September 2012 performance criteria.
The EFF arrangement, which was approved on May 20, 2011  is part of a cooperative package of financing with the European Union amounting to €78 billion over three years. It entails exceptional access to IMF resources, amounting to 2,306 percent of Portugal’s IMF quota.
After the Board discussion, Ms. Nemat Shafik, Deputy Managing Director and Acting Chair, said:
“Reflecting the authorities’ strong policy efforts, fiscal and external imbalances have significantly narrowed and sovereign spreads have declined. Nonetheless, a weaker external outlook and rising unemployment have increased risks to the attainment of program’s objectives. Additional efforts are necessary, with the support of euro-area partners, to further advance fiscal consolidation and boost long-term growth.
“In the face of weaker revenues, the revised fiscal targets strike an appropriate balance between advancing the required fiscal adjustment and supporting growth. However, with debt now set to peak at about 124 percent of GDP in 2014, room for maneuver has diminished. A prompt completion of the planned expenditure review would help rebalance the adjustment effort, which currently is predominantly based on revenue measures.
“Structural reforms are critical to underpinning durable fiscal consolidation. Significant progress has been achieved in strengthening tax administration and public financial management, and in reforming SOEs. However, additional efforts are necessary, including by comprehensively implementing the new expenditure commitment rules, monitoring tax compliance, maintaining tight budget constraint on state-owned enterprises, and reducing costs of public-private partnerships.
“The authorities have a strong track record in preserving financial stability, and have taken important steps in recapitalizing banks and strengthening the supervision and resolution frameworks. Exceptional support from the Eurosystem and recent ECB decisions should also prove helpful in ensuring sufficient liquidity to banks. However, risks need to be monitored carefully and access to credit by small and medium-sized enterprises should be preserved.
“Significant progress has been made on structural reforms, including by reducing distortions in labor, housing, and product markets, as well as on judiciary reform. However, these reforms may take time to bear fruit. Alternative policy options should be considered to increase competition in the non-tradable sector, which would facilitate the external adjustment and improve long-term growth prospects.”
