The debt crisis that has gripped the European economy the past four years is no longer officially the main concern for European finance charge . The thermometer Eurogroup , one of the most reliable , leaves no doubt: the financial puzzle periphery - Greece, Ireland , Portugal , Italy and Spain occupies a discreet background on the agenda of the informal meeting of finance ministers of the eurozone are held Monday in Brussels. Unlike previous editions , monopolized by the difficulties solvency of the Mediterranean countries , the meeting has two different issues on the table : the exchange rate between the single currency and the dollar and the risk of deflation. European sources insist that , in both cases, a growing group of countries is pressing the European Central Bank ( ECB) to act to consider its rhetoric promises permanent finishes not translated into real action .
"The ministers of the euro zone will study the effects of the exchange rate on the real economy " have pointed from Brussels in an explicit recognition of the prevailing malaise in most European - less capital in Berlin, which is asserting the strength of the single currency on exports . Anchored to the salvation of the external sector to restore economic pulse, fear the impact of a stronger euro on trade balances .
Two figures underlying concern : the exchange rate between the EUR and the U.S. dollar is at record highs since 2011 and inflation in the euro area continues to show signs of fragility , closing April at 0.7% , one tenth below Analyst consensus and 1.3% below the target of price stability set by the ECB . On Thursday he will know if its Governing Council takes action or whether, instead, delves into his timid strategy based on a verbal escalation that no longer convinces almost no one in the European Union ( EU) .
The Tobin tax , to review
The decrease in the level of concern for the public finances of the peripheral countries will also move on Tuesday Ecofin - forum of finance ministers of all Member States, and give way to a hitherto latent concern : the adoption of a tax on financial transactions, colloquially called Tobin tax , from 11 countries among which is Spain . The delegations traveling to the EU capital with the intention of sealing a joint document to be included in the chapter starving political gains ahead of the European elections next June 25.
Agreed on - schedule will take effect in 2015 - the debate is now focused on determining which financial assets are subject to the fee. The draft agreed a month ago considered an initial charge of 0.1% on transactions of shares and debt securities and 0.01 % on derivatives , financial products much more complex. However, EU sources left in the air the final terms of the covenant. " Some governments prefer to increase the load on derivatives " point . Others, like the Spanish , prefer to restrict the rate of major listed companies shares and derivatives risk.
In this respect , the Spanish owner, Luis de Guindos , has been convinced that the 11 countries that have decided to implement the rate will reach a "political agreement" on the modalities of this new tax .
Decision of the European Court
This tax figure present in academic debates since the late seventies , came to the fore at the end of today 's Ecofin April 1 with the announcement of Minister Luis de Guindos of a principle of political agreement between Spain , Germany, France , Italy , Portugal, Greece, Belgium , Austria , Estonia , Slovakia and Slovenia which has been taking shape in recent weeks . On Wednesday the High Court of Justice of the EU rejected an amendment of the British government , which sought to stop considering their adoption harmful to community partners who do not participate in it. Despite the predictable motion of this court , the judgment has been interpreted as an endorsement of the new rate .
Also on Wednesday , the Spanish government on the agenda Stability revenues worth 640 million by the adoption rate in 2015 . This figure is well below the initial estimate of the EU executive , which calculates 4.700 million this tax if taxed the sale of all types of financial assets, but it does put black on white estimates of impact of the new rate , something unprecedented to date.
