Draghi seen having done enough for economy, euro
Edinburgh

Analysts at HSBC Holdings plc, Banco Santander SA and National Australia Bank Ltd predict muted declines or even gains in the shared currency versus the dollar in 2016. The median forecast in a Bloomberg survey is for a drop of about 4 per cent.
