City of London and EU in Bitter Acrimony One's history is long and the other's is short, but the City of London and the European Union have each in their own way been drivers of financial globalization and economic wealth. But the hard-hitting credit crisis, a series of bailouts and global recession have tarnished reputations of governments and financial industries alike, endangering mutual admiration and cooperation: The EU resents what it regards as speculators from the City, Europe's largest financial center. The British are alarmed by a loss of wealth, blaming financiers and government. And the financial industry vows to combat regulations – including a proposed financial-transactions tax – that it deems excessive, making the City less competitive with New York or Hong Kong.
