Asian session: Mario Monti has held a post of the prime minister of Italy

The euro maintained a two-day gain on prospects confidence in Italy’s ability to curb its debt will be revived after Mario Monti, a former European Union competition commissioner, takes over as prime minister. Italy’s President Giorgio Napolitano offered Monti the post of prime minister after sounding out the country’s political parties for their support in consultations yesterday. Monti must present the names of his Cabinet ministers to Napolitano before he can be sworn in. He will then face confidence votes in both houses of parliament. Leaders of outgoing Premier Silvio Berlusconi’s People of Liberty party earlier told Napolitano that they’ll support a Monti government, virtually ensuring his confirmation in parliament, which may come this week.
