The economic fills out with top-tier event risk in European trading hours but the fiasco in Cyprus is likely to remain central for financial markets. The island nation’s Parliament is due to vote on the terms of the controversial EU bailout deal that will impose a bank levy on deposits in Cypriot banks. Passage of the measure will set a precedent for debt crisis management that could spark bank runs in other Eurozone countries with sickly banks (notably Spain) as depositors look to safeguard their savings from potential future seizure. Fears of such an outcome stand to put the Euro under pressure. Overall risk appetite is likewise vulnerable in this scenario, threatening sentiment-geared currencies including the Canadian and Australian Dollars.
