Governments Shifting from Fiscal Triage to Recovery Mode, Says Deutsche Bank

This especially includes Deutsche Bank, who’s Securities Chief Economist Torsten Slok said:

Policy makers are moving from triage to recovery. They are realizing that more fiscal support will be needed to households and small businesses to prevent this liquidity crisis from turning into a solvency crisis.

The movement appears to be a shift from institutional crisis toward individual crisis, as the massive stimuli of national governments have kicked in. The bank also suggested that the recent financial crisis has driven a digital cash revolution. The need for greater solvency appears to be global. The European Central Bank (ECB) expanded asset purchases by $677 billion to 1.35 billion euros in total. Japan has already approved a $1.1 trillion stimulus package. The central bank also approved $274 billion in small business loans. China and South Korea followed similar paths, approving $508 billion and $63 billion respectively.
