Earnings fall at BNP-Paribas

Earnings at BNP Paribas fell 72% in the third quarter after the French bank took a bigger-than-expected hit of two billion euros on Greek debt. The sum represents 60% of France's biggest listed bank's exposure to the Greek market. The problem remains BNP's dependence on wholesale funding markets, putting it in the frontline of the eurocrisis. http://www.euronews.net/
