New Story:

Europe's hurting for cash and central banks around the world are stepping in to give it a boost.

The Federal Reserve, along with five other central banks, acted Wednesday to make it cheaper for banks around the world to borrow U.S. dollars.

Overall, these efforts are meant to "ease strains in financial markets and thereby mitigate the effects of such strains on the supply of credit to households and businesses and so help foster economic activity," the Federal Reserve said in a press release.
World stock markets surged on the news, pushing the Dow (INDU) back into positive territory for the year.

These liquidity facilities could come in handy if Europe's debt crisis, for example, escalates to the point that foreign banks need the funds to continue normal business transactions.

Since May, the cost for European banks to borrow dollars from other European banks has skyrocketed. Through central bank auctions announced in September, these banks can borrow dollars at reduced interest rates, for periods of three months.

This is meant to lower the cost of short-term borrowing for troubled European banks, as well as give them immediate access to dollars. Today's actions continue that plan and further reduce borrowing costs.

In its statement Wednesday, the Fed stressed that the move is designed to offer help to foreign banks, and that U.S banks are not in need of liquidity, at least for now.
Meanwhile, the People's Bank of China also announced a plan to increase liquidity Wednesday by lowering its reserve requirement ratio for financial institutions by half a percentage point.
