European Central Bank Governing Council member Fabio Panetta has issued a warning regarding the potential for energy market tensions to undermine global financial stability. During a speech in Rome, Panetta highlighted that the conflict involving the United States, Israel, and Iran is a primary source of concern for policymakers.
