The SoFFin (Sonderfonds Finanzmarktstabilisierung - Special Financial Market Stabilization Funds) is a program of the German government with the purpose to stabilize and restore confidence in the financial system. It was created in the middle of the Financial crisis of 2007–2010 on October 17, 2008 by the German Parliament and enacted on October 20, 2008.〔http://www.spiegel.de/international/europe/0,1518,583739,00.html〕 As of December 31, 2010 it stopped offering new services but continued managing existing guarantees. In November 2011, it was announced that it would be revived for potential new issues if necessary.〔http://www.businessweek.com/news/2011-11-14/germany-to-reactivate-soffin-bank-rescue-fund-asmussen-says.html〕 Initially it was established as an agency at the Deutsche Bundesbank and was supervised by the federal ministry of finance. The fund was managed by Dr. Hannes Rehm (speaker), Dr. Christopher Pleister and Gerhard Strattthaus. Operations were conducted through three tasks * Providing Liquidity by means of guarantees for specially issued debt by eligible financial institutions * Investing in Equity (recapitalization) * Purchasing securities in open market operations The SoFFin may grant guarantees of up to 400bn euros and recapitalize or purchase assets for an additional 80bn euros. In January 2011 the SoFFin was reorganized under the then created German Agency for the Stabilization of the Financial Markets FMSA.〔http://www.fmsa.de/en/soffin〕 == SoFFin guaranteed issues 〔http://www.soffin.de/de/soffin/leistungen/massnahmen-aktuell/index.html〕 == 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「SoFFin」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
