Summary: p A woman cycles past the illuminated euro sign at the European Central Bank9s (ECB) headquarter in Frankfurt, in this November 28, 2005 file photo. Euro zone banks showed huge demand in the European Central Bank9s first-ever tender of overnight U.S. dollar funds September 18, 2008, part of global central bank efforts to ease money market tensions. Some 61 banks bid for $101.68 billion in funds, compared to the $40 billion that the ECB had said it intended to allot. The ECB allotted the funds at a single rate of 4.00 percent, the highest rate at which it could find takers for the full $40 billion, after it invited banks to submit bids in a Dutch auction procedure.
