The G7 Finance ministers and central bank governors meeting in Chantilly

PARIS (Reuters) - The European Central Bank's new crisis response package to fight the impact of the coronavirus outbreak impact will be effective, ECB governing council member Francois Villeroy de Galhau said on Friday.

Villeroy, who is also governor of the Bank of France, told French BFM Business radio that there would be no liquidity problems.

Villeroy also urged companies drawing on credit lines unnecessarily as a precaution to be reasonable.
